Messenger Evolved
With the introduction of all these social networks, the use of instant messaging has changed. The behaviour of using an instant messaging system is changing. There are multiple facets to this change.
Some of the key aspects include;
1. Mobile phones (with Data allowance)
Integrating with Online Social Network Systems. Some with VOIP capibilities, other integrate with contact databases, whilst others again compile completely different lists of users.
2. Social network websites
Lots of them. Plaxo, Linkedin, Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, MSN Spaces and the others.
So – The question becomes – How exactly does one track, from a contacts point of view, the activities across these networks?
