The world wide web is filled with websites of many different kinds. Some are personal websites, such as this one here; some are informational websites, such as college sites; some are just for fun, such as flash game sites. But the most popular type of websites is the social networking sites. There are thousands of social networking websites on the Internet, and even more can be created daily using a builder such as Ning. There are many different types of social networking websites on the web as well, ranging anywhere from an all around social site, to one specifically built for fans of a certain hobby. Not every social networking website is popular, or as popular as some of them out there. In an attempt to try and be as popular as the most visited social networking sites, other sites will copy, using that term loosely, some of their features in order to catch the attention of the users who were interested in said feature. Lately though, the changes have become blatant copycats of the original idea, bringing in question what makes one social networking website unique from all of the others.
