The Microblogging
At the beginning was: Beatles or Rolling Stone?
Later it was: Duran Duran or Spandau Ballet?
Today, placing the music in web social dualism, is: Facebook or Twitter?
Well you also have social networks on the web their battles with strokes of post, moods and sharing. Twitter is the social network that has more success than others, in the Web landscape, so to be an antagonist of the more famous Facebook.
The usefulness of Twitter is not immediately obvious to some, as it is instead to Facebook, although it can be more exciting when we obtain the block Tweeting. With Twitter you get immediate answers and seems to live between the world of e-mail, instant messaging and blogging. Twitter encourages infact link to anything out, it is more analogous to a pure search engine, an alternative way to find content on the web.
Twitter developers have rapidly built brand awareness and a loyal following, especially among those with above-average mastery of the web, like bloggers, online marketing experts or anyone who has something to promote, these users seem to find it extremely valuable for their purposes. If you ask around because you love Twitter, the most obvious answer is because I can do any question and get an answer quickly.
Twitter bases its success on the ability to “tap into the collective consciousness” of web users, exporting ideas with which otherwise would not have any chance of connection. Twitter is therefore the place where people can gather to chat about any topic came into his mind, is like stepping into a refreshing bath about communicating ideas, thoughts.

Affluence
The virtual contry club
The total freedom and the spread of information, two pillars that have always characterized the Internet, have always been applied also to the world of social networks. But this has brought people who frequently use social networks to meet more people do not like, they go from jamming up of spam, in some cases, to stalking.
To avoid these phenomena are born so the “social network class” or community of elite, exclusive community with a few select members, where access is limited and members can find, even on the web, knowledge of status similar to their real life . These include “A small waorld”, “Diamond Lounge” and, last arrived, and perhaps even more exclusive than its predecessors: Affluence.org.

Affluence
Since its launch in September 2008, Affluence has reached the figure of 30 thousand subscribers, a trivial amount compared to the millions of Facebook or Twitter, a number that does not make him talk normally even noteworthy social network. However, there are the numbers of members that make Affluence different and unique in its kind.
His invention was made thanks to Scott Mitchell, an entrepreneur who had previously operated and sold a small business on the internet, Itunes. com, for $ 180 million in 2000. Suddenly finding himself with such a sum in his pocket, Mr. Mitchell began to live exclusively according to its newly created wealth, trips on the French Riviera, exclusive restaurants, villas and luxury sports cars, realizing fully the fateful American Dream .
Among the other Pharaonic spending, however, he realized that sometimes take a few setbacks: his eorgpate was sometimes rancid and Ferrari just bought did not draw well on Sunset Boulevard as that of his comrades in the Country Club. Mitchell then thought that if young people could pass through MySpace, as well as music and photos, tips on where to purchase them on the last bags Eastpack, Mitchell could create a small circle of wealthy who could solve the problem of disinformation, along with all other problems of purchases of his fellow squash.
The only problem was keeping out all aspiring members who wanted to attend the social network just to be invited to a cocktail party. This was indeed the case with other communities only as a small world “or” diamond lounge “where, despite the efforts of moderators / ushers, people do not deserve the status of the initial network, say the founders, were slipping or, Put the Anglo-Saxon, “there goes the neighborhood” that is “the neighborhood was deteriorating.” Mitchell and his programmers think of a system to control and watch access systems to Affluence in the safest way possible: the bank account.
They created such requests for access to Affluence: 300 five thousand dollars annual income or assets of 3 million dollars, or, as the only alternative, to be invited and approved by 5 members already inside the network. In addition to requests for admission, as Mitchell recently said the Wall Street Journal, the network includes a series of telephone interviews and inspections at all major banks to control the financial life present and past member of the aspirant.
The controls do not end there, of course, there is a whole system of algorithms and controls for which, if the writing were to fall below the requirements of the network, it would be immediately expelled from the community. None of this is of course done for charity, Affluence maintains its status through the information it has. Many firms are interested to know potential clients with an income level required by Affluence and are willing to pay handsomely for such information. In addition, numerous events are organized by companies to attract members of Affluence in their business. Again according to Mitchell, companies are willing to pay hundreds of dollars for each person who presents the event through an exclusive invitation left Affluence.org.
The “virtual country club” only accepts 300 to 500 people a month, continues to grow slowly and increase the numbers of his caste. Affluence makes contact so the most wealthy people from around the globe that will have any problem, should they turn social networks · Affluence.org for business, thanks to the network to find the best of the city or charterer of Ferrari’s most luxurious hotel in the area around.
“Affluence.org” dedicated to the exclusive community of the world’s richest communities, including a mix of charity and a roll of the contry golf clubs, spends his time on the internet. Requests for access are staggering: 300 annual income of five thousand dollars, or (if you can afford not to work is not uncommon to speak of such people) 3 million fortune, easiest way is that 5 people already inside the network to approve the application for admission.
What’s more, there are proposals for the continued use of the webcam in navigation, with a control system (similar to the systems of control anti-terrorism at airports) that monitors the items included in the room to check that the style of life ‘ writing is up to other people already inside.
