[Sorry, the same message with the right address in CC] I'm sure you all read French so i give you the following link :) http://www.internetactu.net/2008/02/01/le-design-de-la-visibilite-un-essai-d... The idea is to put on a map the various SNS according to two axis : 1. being / doing, from left to right 2. actual / imaginary (or something like that), from top to bottom with five main patterns: - paravent (cover screen ??) - clair-obscur - post-it - lighthouse - magic lantern It's not a really seriously grounded typology for now, it's more like a first try in order to help thinking about all this. But i'm sure Dominique will publish it eventually. :) -- Christophe Prieur / prieur@liafa.jussieu.fr Sense, Orange Labs / sociology of uses Liafa, University Paris-Diderot / graph algorithms

the question of theoretical typologies of SNS is an interesting one. i also haven't seen such typologies. one could certainly typify them according to the societal role they have, i.e. based on which societal subsystem they belong to. so e.g. a distinction between economic SNS (job-, career-, business-oriented), political SNS, educational SNS, cultural SNS (friendships etc.). but i think for doing so a social theory needs to be underlying the typology in order to clarify and ground the criteria that are used for the taxonomy.

Sorry, but I don't quite understand, what do you mean by "modality"? Could you explain it a little? Actually my purpose is general taxonomy or typology of Social Networking Services, just to map the area.

Hi, I think SNS can be taxonomized according to various criterion, including modality . Although most of them use different modality, some focus on specific modalities (e.g., YouTube's focus on video sharing, etc.). I guess the taxonomy would depend on what we want to do with it.
