"Adding value" maybe the proper description on social networking; or thinking from different direction, people always gather because of some reason ( like ixda formed around interaction designers) 1. the share the similiar interests 2. the share the similar experience The business model should be better based on the shared stuff, instead of on the networking itself, because the the shared stuff more close to user's motivation for better design.
