Great example: I learned today that RelaxDoc social network for physicians (previously mentioned here) grants its registered users free access to EBSCO’s DynaMed. How cool is that? For that reason alone, I’ll encourage clinicians I know to join RelaxDoc. [...] [...] How to differentiate?

Forums DO facilitate social network<em>ing</em> (<a href="http://pages.citebite.com/k1w8k2j6i2tpy" rel="nofollow">as "social networks" are defined here</a>), but I'm using "online social network" (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_network#Social_networking_.2F_Internet_social_networks" rel="nofollow">as defined here</a>) to refer to sites/services like MySpace and Facebook. I think we're in agreement. :) Best, -David Dr. Karuturi-

I absolutely agree. Forums DO facilitate social networking (as “social networks” are defined here), but I’m using “online social network” (as defined here) to refer to sites/services like MySpace and Facebook.

When you consider the broad idea of Social Networking, you can include any tools which help us to network socially. I do consider forums as the ancient social networks of Internet as they allowed us to meet new people. Now a days Forums are giving us a profile page where you can add your pics, join groups and also create a blog. So you can observe that new forum 2.0 concept is more inclined towards a social networking approach. Thanks for the post.
