Purpose

To further investigate this week's topics and to demonstrate your understanding of e-commerce as it relates to business, technology, and society.

Action Items

Visit one for-profit sponsored social network and one non-profit sponsored social network.

Review and examine the offerings at each site.

Compare and contrast the organizational objectives that each site appears to be pursuing. How is the for-profit company using community-building technologies as a customer relations management tool?

Create an 5 - 10 slide electronic presentation of your findings, including screen shots, and include references and any necessary appendices (i.e., organizational charts, graphs, etc.).
