Of course most social media sites have taken to advertising to generate more revenue, which is the goal of any site/business. The 'noise' of social media is really just the overwhelming QUANTITY that we have to choose from. Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, LinkedIn, Flickr, Buzz, whatever it might be each one has it's own particular target it was geared toward and I feel like now has completely exploded. The problem is, people are developing more and more websites every day for their unique demographic, and somewhere down the line branches off to eventually include everyone else, like Facebook did. First for college students then for everyone else, business, celebrities, even fictional characters. On another note, I completely agree with your article. I only actively use Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Wordpress and it's at times too much to keep up with. I've sworn off Myspace all together, but if you're not on the sites your potential clients are, you need to be. I feel like I've been forced to choose which sites I stay active in and which ones I give up all together. That's the problem. We have to find someway to integrate everything into ONE. Of course there are ways to update Twitter with Facebook posts and vice-versa, but still there has to be a better way. A profile page you create and automatically sends it to all of your media sites. HOW this happens, I'm not a programmer...I have no idea. I find I have the same problem on 'Twitter' with the keyword problems. I think there should be 'say no to twitter spam' campaign. No longer are e-mails a way for spammers to attack your online experience, but now Twitter, Facebook, and any other social networking site is at risk. These 'spammers' are going to ruin the user experience and in the end force users away from their favorite sites. Long rant! I enjoyed the post very much! Keep at it!
