VentureBeat: State of Mobile Social Networks
Saad Fazil does a roundup and explains why these networks are still not reaching their potential:
We decided to try out several of these apps ourselves and talk to the companies and several industry experts to find out. And what we found out is that there seem to be four factors holding these networks back: Users are hesitant to join unless their friends are already on board, businesses won’t join up without a critical mass of users, many phones still can’t handle the necessary technology, and there are privacy and behavioral concerns.
He also offers suggestions to help them grow.
