Why Social Networks Are Important

The power of visual story telling and the power of social networking. Why they both matter. In a simple presentation.

A colleague asked me recently for a reason she should sign up for a social networking site. The best response I could mutter was something along the lines "Well, this is why I use ...." and proceed to try and show how I find some social networks better (for me) than others.

Now, I've always liked the CommonCraft videos - they do a great job of explaining web related issues, and thanks to following CommonCraft on Twitter, I found this today - a great explanation of just why I find value in social networks. Wish I'd seen it before I tried to stumble over my explanation!
