In this article I am going to explain that Social Networking is actually one of the oldest forms of communication in the world. It is not anything new, except now we have improved it and can use it Worldwide.

The oldest form of Social Networking began when man first appeared. We had no way of communicating back then and to distinguish our friends from our foes, man began to make noises.

They made friends by offering to groom their hair and this then became a way for them to know the difference between friends and foes.

Today we have simply moved on somewhat. Language is now a part of our lives and we no longer need to groom people to tell them we are friends.

Today's social Networker simply goes online, joins a community and then invites others to be their friend. A simple process that now has over 100 million people worldwide doing it on a daily basis.

Myspace, Facebook, Bebo etc, have all become huge communities of people interacting with other. they share pictures, videos, music, talk, business etc, etc. Most of these sites are free to join and members then get access to their own web portal where they can advertise themselves to build their network of friends.

Social Networking has also become a way for many people to generate business. You can search for professionals to do work you need done, like web designers, hosting, architects, builders, consultants and nearly anything you want.

You can find lost friends, college mates, past lovers, or indeed even communicate with the rich and famous.

Until now, there were very few opportunities for people to make money by being a member. That was until now.

Wowzza has just launched and with it a new Social Networking website. Wowzza is different in that it also has a business opportunity attached to it. Not only can you find like minded people to interact with, but for a small monthly fee, you can now generate an additional monthly income just by being a member.

The people behind Wowzza have strong financial backing, and already this new Social Networking site is getting a lot of attention.

The fact that members can earn money each month is obviously one of the reasons why this is creating a buzz online. However, Wowzza has also made it possible for people to earn even if they do not build a Social Network of friends.

Interesting stuff I must say and it certainly looks very promising and soon we will start to see this new Social Networking site becoming just as popular as MySpace and Facebook.
