Picking up the social networking thread, I have been testing the Multiply environment. It is quite impressing. Content integration is great; forums, blogs audio and video all craftily blended in a single, accessible page.
The ability to create private groups, with content restricted to members, is great. But why call it "groups"? Call it "networks". Other services such as peopleaggregator also incur in this confusion.
The flash video player is great (restrictions are the same as youtube: 100Mb or 10 mins), but it needs an audio player integrated in the page.
The handling of personal messages and answers relies too much on email. Why are all email alerts turn on by default? I thought email was old, and networking was new. Relaying in email for alerts is, definitely, old-fashioned.

I use it too. Pity there is too much underground stuff going on.
I told you it's good. Too overloaded, though.
