What Are Social Network Sites

Social Network Sites are websites where you share information with others. Some have more features than others.

What follows is a brief outline of the websites Bebo, Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace and YouTube.

BEBO

Bebo is an online social media network similar in format to MySpace, Xanga, Facebook, and Yahoo. Bebo is the next generation social networking site where members can stay in touch with their College friends, connect with friends, share photos, discover new interests and just hang out. Bebo has tons of users, an open developers platform, support for Facebook apps, and users that are apparently fairly responsive to the new apps.

Company

Bebo CEO Michael Birch said his company is concurrently working with Google’s OpenSocial interoperability initiative, but wanted to get its own platform out the door before that alliance is ready.

Depending on your viewpoint, it can also be used to define the subject of managing the funds that the private and business sector uses. Large companies with even larger portfolios will employ a finance manager to help control their assets.

Managing this involves dealing with the optimization and allocation of funds to various areas either by borrowing or by using those available from internal resources. The way this works is that managers work to keep the cost of their borrowing low whilst passing this cost on with a an additional percentage to the client enabling a profit to be made. The fact is that it governs most of the worlds activities and poor finance management will immediately show up as conditions deteriorate in procurement, production and sales as it affects every sphere of business activities.
