We made this video for people who wonder why social networking sites are so popular. We think one reason is because they help to solve a real world problem.
Networks get things done.
00:00:00
Whether it's sending a letter or lighting your home, networks make it happen.
00:00:06
To get from Chicago to Santa Fe, we need to see the network of roads that will get us
00:00:11
there.
00:00:15
We see that Chicago is connected to St. Louis, which is connected to Dallas, which is connected
00:00:16
to Santa Fe.
00:00:20
Of course, people networks can help us with finding jobs, meeting new friends, and finding
00:00:21
partners.
00:00:26
You know how it works.
00:00:27
Bob is your friend, and he knows Sally, and Sally's friend Joe has a job for you.
00:00:28
This is a network of people, a social network.
00:00:32
Yay!
00:00:35
The problem with social networks in the real world is that most of the connections between
00:00:36
people are hidden.
00:00:39
Your network may have huge potential, but it's only as valuable as the people and the
00:00:41
connections that you can see.
00:00:45
Boo!
00:00:47
This problem is being solved by a type of website called a social networking site.
00:00:48
These websites help you see connections that are hidden in the real world.
00:00:52
Here's how it works.
00:00:55
You sign up for a free account and fill out your profile.
00:00:56
Then you look for people you know.
00:00:59
When you find someone, you click a button that says add as friend.
00:01:00
Once you do this, you and that person have a connection on the website that others can
00:01:04
see.
00:01:08
They are a member of your network, and you are a member of theirs.
00:01:09
What's really cool is that you can see who your friends know and who your friend's friends
00:01:12
know.
00:01:16
You're no longer a stranger, so you can contact them more easily.
00:01:17
This solves a real world problem because your network has hidden opportunities.
00:01:20
Social networking sites make these connections between people visible.
00:01:23
Like a map for a highway, they show you the people network that can help you get to your
00:01:27
next destination, whether it's a job, a new partner, or a great place to live.
00:01:30
Your network is suddenly more useful.
00:01:35
You can get started at these sites, LinkedIn, Facebook, and MySpace.
