 My name is danah boyd and I'm a Senior Researcher at Microsoft Research, a Research Assistant Professor in Media, Culture, and Communication at New York University, a Visting Researcher at Harvard Law School, and an Adjunct Associate Professor at the University of New South Wales. I received my PhD from the School of Information at UC-Berkeley. I spend 1/3 of my time in Cambridge, MA, 1/3 in New York, NY, and 1/3 in the air. Buzzwords in my world include: public/private, identity, context, youth culture, social network sites, social media. I use this blog to express random thoughts about whatever I'm thinking.

Look at their sample page; they mock many of the main social networks out there with fabulous photos and descriptions based on stereotypes (LJ=goths, Orkut=Brazilians, etc.). ::giggle:: 2 comments to Sixfoo! 660Leave a Reply |

Perhaps not for social networks, but for people who want to connect/consolidate their islands-of-identity across various social network systems, there is the XFN (XHTML Friends Network) and its rel=”me” value which can be used for voluntary social network profile identity consolidation.
As such, users of these “social archipelagos” can use XFN to connect their various walled garden social nets into one big social internet.
