[...] Planning Your Social Networking Strategy All social networks are slightly essentially different [well, let me tell you some commonplace truth, you know] – a newb will first try to apply the same “proven” strategy once he joins a new community, while an experienced marketer will explore the differences first and will try to tweak a new social media marketing strategy. Here is a simple sample of the comparative social media analysis that can help you to define your techniques [to clearly see the pattern I was using green for default SM options that can help you with marketing, dark green for more or less neutral options and dark blue - if the absence/presence of the function might hinder your marketing efforts]: Default Options: Twitter Networking Stumbleupon Networking Mixx Networking Sphinn Networking New friend email notification Yes No Yes No Mutual friends limit No (*) 200 No No Link sharing No Yes (one by one) Bulk (to all friends) No PM Yes Yes Yes Yes New comment notification No No Yes No (Default) Friend’s Update Following Instant Instant (they will appear on your home page) No No [...]

Hi, Syzlak. Ok, that's my fault, I guess I was not clear enough. I actually adore SU and Twitter and use them much more often than Sphinn or Mixx. I was only talking business and marketing possibilities here and that's it... While it took me rather long to build connections on SU (only time and quality worked there for me), I have just koined MIxx and already I am already pretty confident there.

While I agree with you on some of the drawbacks of Twitter and SU, I must say that I still find them to be the most useful/interesting to use out of these four.
Upon reading this post, I signed up for Mixx, and was not impressed. I’m tired of seeing sites use Digg as a general format. I never really liked Digg (not because of Ron Paul spammers) because it’s layout and community left something to be desired.
Personally, I think the others in your list, which have fewer useful features to the online marketer, are better services based on their design, community and innovation.
