Check out this post on the Mediashift blog regarding social media and social networkings.

Kismet!

Share your thoughts -- based on what we looked at in class and discussed -- in the comments to that post.

I wish Facebook had a better way for each user to apply some kind of rating on each friend to indicate the strength of the relationship-- something descriptive like:

1) "referred to me by___ "'
2) "I was referred by___ ";
3) "I'm a fan";
4) "Fan of me";
5) "Appears we're mutual fans";
6) "Sharing first thoughts/ideas";
7) "Completed first engagement";

The user could have control over how much others see of this; would be helpful in prioritizing friends and networks for more refined outreach...
