Your own social networking site

Is it time you set up your own social networking site?

If so, what kind of site should you set up?

The easiest one to start is a blog. And to make that really easy - Google has set up www.blogger.com. Just go there, set up and account, and start blogging. Yes you have to choose what your blog looks like, and maybe a few other options, but that is easy.

Or you can create a blog on your own. This means that you have to own a domain, get hosting and then install the blog software. But this is all easier than it sounds. If you are going this direction - I strongly suggest using Wordpress as your blogging software - it is by far the best, and the industry standard.

Well beyond a blog there is a number of options to set up your own social networking site.
You can start a forum, create a wiki (like wikipedia), or even build your own social community type of site to rival MySpace and Facebook, or even business related networking sites like BigDaddyFriends and Bizpreneur.

The choices are endless - so start today.
