Companies and brands will build their own social networks to engage and market to interested parties. We've recently launched a search engine that helps users find niche interest social networks and helps social network owners promote them. Users search for sites related to whatever their interest is and webmasters submit their sites tagged with relted keywords. The idea is that due to the increasing popularity and proliferation of niche subject social networking sites thanks to Ning et al, users have a way of finding like-minded communities and these social networks receive targeted traffic that helps build user base and monetize. Please take a look! We're still building the database. Feel free to register and submit your niche social network or social media site for free. http://findasocialnetwork.com Niche social media sites have experienced huge growth this year and this field will continue to grow in 2008.

A Fraxi site may be attractive but what if your site grows so big and suddenly Fraxi decides to close operation for whatever reason, then you don't have control over your database and other files. It's just my afterthought. I would still opt for a hosted networking site.

You can size-limit the pic. Or just force it that the pic be on an external photo service. Yes commenters can include links.. but not displayed until clicked.
