Top 10 Reasons to Join a Social Network

With everyone from USA Today and Ragan Communications to Sprite and Kelly Clarkson starting their own social network, now’s the perfect time to join one yourself.

Need a reason? We came up with 10.**

From the home office in Ottawa, Ontario…

10) My Mom’s Second Life avatar keeps nagging me to clean up my island and get a job.

9) ScobleSethCalacanisKawaskai Said So.

8) Twitter is sooo last month and Wiki’s are for sissies.

7) My boss saw the BusinessWeek cover story and wants a report on it.

6) I’m working my way up to eHarmony.

5) Helps pass the time waiting for the next, new shiny.

4) Where else can He/They be a She?

3) My kids joined Webkinz and I feel left out.

2) The bandwagon still has a few seats left.

1) I pitched a client on starting their own. Might as well check one out.

**This list started as an online exchange with Canuckflack. So consider this a transcontinental funny.

Scott - It's social network, not social disease! ;-) OK, were my blog aspiring for a higher slot on Maslov's hierarchy, I'd be all Spin Thicket, all the time.

Dat's more like it, holmes.

Kevin,

Might as well. My cat needs another way to screw up my work.

I hear this Internet thing is gonna be big. Last time I waited too long to jump on a social networking bandwagon, I had to look all over for a decent CB radio.

I have always been distracted by shiny things.
