Does it require to develop more LIS social networking sites?
Dear Friends,
Mr. Badan Barman have given the list of URLs for developing the free social networking sites. Information provided in that discussion is really worthy.
The question is that, is it good to develop more LIS social networking sites? I think that it is better strengthen the existing LIS social networking site in place of developing other websites. It would be difficult being over so many networks and raise the issues over so many networks. The repeatation of same issues would be the another problem.
Kindly give your opinion on this issue.

Firstly, I am not in favour of duplicate social networking. You should not develop a social networking site for the same subject or area, where such network already exists. If you try to develop, it will be just wastage of time and effort and nothing else. This is as because you will not be able to compete with the existing networks in terms of members and facilities.
Secondly, I just list out the platforms for developing social networks so that you can at least develop a social networking site for your own institute to bring the teachers and students under a common platform and by this way showcase the role of library professionals in the age of internet.
