Recent Interesting Social/Networking Websites

Here are some of the websites I'm excited about these days:

SocialVibe
If you are a Wordpress user, you might recognize this plugin. This website is a social networking website (like Facebook) with limited functions to choose the sponsor of your choice, charity of your choice and network with people in the forum or do activity (like completing surveys) to raise money for the charity.

Tumblr
Although it doesn't have much functionality to customize the whole feel to your website or add new plugins and such, this website combines the simple micro blogging functionality of Twitter (Check out also for Plurk) and the simplicity to publishing anything at all like Wordpress.

Sparkpeople
Sparkpeople caught my attention when I was searching for a good abdomen workout in YouTube by Nicole - see here. About a year later, this website blossomed into such a very cool portal with everything about fitness combined with a social networking function as well. Lifehacker rated this website to be the best weight-management tool - see here.

Mahalo
I started following on this website because the very beautiful Veronica Belmont from CNET Download became the host of previous Mahalo Daily. Mahalo had aspired to be the first human powered portal. It's gotten so impressive that they have developed a system that rewards users who develop or administer a page with Mahalo dollars (which then could be converted to Paypal money). They have three parts, Mahalo portal; Mahalo Answers (much like Yahoo Answers) and Mahalo Tasks (where people set tasks and users can do it for a reward).


HowStuffWorks
Marshall Brain started this website with simplicity in each article having to answer a "How to.." question. The website started off as an online magazine style and now it's almost as good as a portal with social functions. It's almost as good as About.com. Wikipedia.com and Answers.com are still the best though.

Squidoo
I first found out about this website when I started the Simplicity 101 (of simple.ology) from Mark Joyner. Many people wanted to make money online and Squidoo has the exact system to help them. Squidoo allows users to create a "Lens" as they call it; to publish articles, galleries, advertisements, video, polls and such to attract attention. The mastermind creator is Seth Godin, the genius marketing expert (whom you could see in marketing books and videos). The more the "Lens" got views and sales, the creator can then choose to donate; or make money off it. They do have a plan to give certain percentage to themselves, the creator and charity.

Plock - Facebook Game

My bro and mom are quite addicted to this Facebook game. In fact, we have been challenging each other on it for the past few hours. How's that to spend the family time? In front of each other's computers playing games. Now that's a family!
