    Nicely organized! But, where are the niche sites? These may be the Wag when it comes to social media. Cafemom, fohboh, activerain, etc. They have real business models.

    Nice list, but very US-centric. There are a lot of networks and services in other places of the earth, that may be more relevant for their regions (Xing, Sevenload, StudiVZ, Mister Wong, Qype, just to name a few in Europe)

    Excellent post! Very helpful. I especially appreciate that you included visuals for each site.

    Under Niche Social Network, you may want to add Biznik http://www.biznik.com, as the member pages index extremely well on Google. The site has won national awards for innovation, and it continues to improve with new features being added on a regular basis.
