The Various Types of Social Networkers
A new Myspace-commissioned study has been released. The study reports there are six types of social networking users across mainstream social networking sites. Those types are:
- Netrepreneurs – “people who accessed the sites for the sole purpose of making money”
- Connectors – people who “revel in passing on information and links whenever they come across something they find interesting”
- Transumers – “people who follow the lead of others and join groups connected to their hobbies”
- Collaborators – “believe in people power and use social networking sites to create events”
- Scene Breakers – “the early adopters who log on to discover and be part of new and emerging scenes”
- Essentialists – “most common users who use social networking sites to stay in touch with friends and family”
After reading this finding, I’m at a loss for figuring out which category I fall into.
