The Fall of MySpace And The Rise of LinkedIn

Social networks are cool. They are so cool that I’m part of at least five of them.

The trouble with social networks is that they are fickle. What is popular in one moment is not necessarily popular in the next.

I’ll be honest. When I first joined Twitter in 2008, I wasn’t sure if it was going to take off. I actually don’t remember the original account name because I logged in once in 2008 and haven’t since. At the time, I thought that the “texting” like structure of Twitter wouldn’t work online. Given today’s date, I was wrong.

I came across an infographic about social media from Mashable, “The Winners & Losers of Social Networking”.

I think infographics are cool. They are so cool that I’m going to try to learn Adobe Illustrator. We’ll see how far I go.

I’m passing along this infographic because it’s cool and it combines two things I think are cool.
