Nice Comparitive Review of Ryze, Tribe, LinkedIn, Friendster and Live Journal

Christopher Allen has a nice review of all the friend-of-a-friend services. Myself I have not joined any of them since sixdegrees in 1996 or 7. I can't see what they offer that email doesn't -- unless you're single (which seems to be where such services get a lot of their whuffie). Christopher Allen says, "I still believe there is something useful in Social Software to learn that I just have to puzzle out." Me, I am more skeptical.

Whuffie? Google it.

UPDATE: Mitch Ratcliffe has a good discussion of social networking tools, including some frustration using Spoke to get in touch with Paul Krugman.
