What is social networking? Wikipedia says, "A social network service focuses on building online communities of people who share interests and/or activities, or who are interested in exploring the interests and activities of others." A recent statistic shows that 150 million people around the world are now actively using Facebook, and almost half of them are using it every day. The numbers are climbing every minute on MySpace, LinkedIn, Twitter and many other platforms, as well.

According to Mari-Lyn Hudson, an artist and social media coach for creative professionals (http://heartatworkonline.org), "Social networking is about developing relationships and interacting with people. It's the easiest way to market yourself and to build a following. People buy from people who they like, understand and trust."
