SNS: trend or revolution?

Media have discussed the future of social network sites abundantly in 2009. The word 'trend' pops up in almost every article and the end of SNS has also been reported multiple times. But are SNS really only a trend? Will they eventually dissolve and be replaced by a new fad? If this is the case, is it still useful to come up with a new type of SNS? Socialnomics believe it is.

The numbers mentioned leave no doubt that social media are not about to die. In fact, they can be seen as a revolution. Social media have changed the way we live and work and will continue to do so. This means that we at DinnerDate can sleep soundly. Creating a new SNS is definitely not a waste of our time. It could even turn out to be a great success. Fingers crossed!
