January 2008: Profiled Social Network Startups + New Approach for SocialCrunch

I'm pleased to announce to you that this blog, SocialCrunch will be taking a new dimension with the profiling of new social networks as from this month of February. Recently, I decided to focus more on new startup social sites that are connecting people together in today's webspace. That new approach started in January 2008 and I was able to profile 10 social networking startups.

If you missed them, here are they:

1. The CollegeLife.com - A New Facebook?

2. JASEzone MashUp Professionals in Google Maps Mashup

3. FoodHood.com - Where Foodies Meet and Eat

4. Livesteez - The New Video Sharing Place for Hip-Hop and African-American Entertainment News

5. Fiction Folks Mash And Make Money At StoryMash.com

6. Next2Friends Launches Beta And Connects Friends Next To Friends

7. Professional Networking at Neurona.it

8. SocialSplash Uses Splash Points to Buy Users?

9. Tadinky Launches and Invites Members Suggestions

10. MC Hammer To Launch Video Sharing Site Called DanceJam.com

Beginning from February, I'm hoping to try a newer approach. At the end of each week starting from the 4th of February, I would briefly review new social network startups for the week and profile the one I consider as "The Social Network of the Week".

Then, I would expect readers of this blog to select what they would consider as "The Social Network of the Week". You can do so on the comments section. Soon, we would set up a weekly poll, where you can vote for 'The Social Network of The Week'.

I value your readership and comments.
