		<description>Social Networking helps to connect far-flung groups of users who share common interests such as dating, music, sports, hobbies and other passions. In the business world, social networks help professionals share industry expertise and facilitate business networking.

Nice post!</description>

		<description>That is so true. It&#039;s far too easy to be an island. I don&#039;t have much free time, but I try to get out there and network with people. Thanks for the comments.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s a good point. My wife&#039;s got an account on facebook. I don&#039;t. I probably should get one, huh? Follow a bit of my own advice. That&#039;s actually not a bad idea, considering the fact that the real purpose of this site is to showcase and sell my artwork. I&#039;ll probably get one here in the next few months.

Thanks for mentioning that. I&#039;ll certainly look into it.</description>

		<description>Thanks, you make some good points as well. Especially the mentioning of social bookmarking. I was going to save that for my next post on traffic building. Social bookmarking is a great way to increase traffic and search engine ranking. You really can&#039;t go wrong with it.

Thanks for stopping by.</description>

		<description>Hi there. great article, this is the first time that I am checking out your site. I agree with you on the importance of social networking sites for traffic. I recently wrote an article on ideas / strategies for increasing your traffic with social networking sites ... I thought maybe that it could help your users. This is the link ... http://www.socialnetworkingarticles.com/2007/10/26/tips-for-increasing-your-traffic-on-social-networking-bookmarking-sites/
I also listed about 200 social networking sites in a recent article. Thanks again.

		<description>I totally agree. The fun part is trying to market my artwork as well. I&#039;ll probably start doing &quot;featured art posts&quot; that feature specific pieces of art and possibly the products related to it. Right now I just love the ability to voice my opinion. I&#039;ve got some ideas about traffic exchange utilization. In a few months I&#039;ll probably try to launch a site completely devoted to free traffic. That should be fun to develop. Right now I&#039;m just running into programming issues that I don&#039;t have time to muddle through because I&#039;m also a full time student with a full time job. Fun times.

Thanks for stopping by, Sherri. I love your blog. I visit it fairly regularly. Great content.</description>

		<description>Just came across your blog and found some interesting content. Will bookmark this site to keep an eye on it. We own several blogs and two traffic exchanges which I see you had some ideas about. Traffic exchanges are a good way to get your blog noticed and create a new stream of readers if marketed correctly.</description>
