Therefore, from the perspective of user value and business prospects, the Web2.0 community shows strong potential.

The Web2.0 community has the characteristics of autonomy, individuation and self-organization, which stimulates the users ' desire to contribute.

2006 is the year when social networking sites are growing fast, and what will happen in 2007?

In fact, these also as a personal webmaster must face the reality of the problem, but also a profit

Here I quote some reports on the web

Richard Mcmanus (Richard macmanus), Ibrahim Eze (Ebrahim Ezzy), Emre Soguru (Emre sokullu), Alex Escolde (Alex iskold), and Rudy Devilly (Rudy De Waele, and other Internet experts: the virtual world as more and more users and enterprises intervene, SecondLife will become a marketing, promotion and social network an important platform. We believe that the SecondLife will continue to expand globally. At present, we can buy Habbo (Habbo) and SecondLife cards in most supermarkets, the trend will spread to other parts of the world. In short, the virtual world will become part of the real world in the 2007.

A community is a group of social and psychological characteristics, such as common customs, values, and identity, that are composed of homogeneous people, and which members of the Community establish intimate relationships, mutual support, and humane but isolated and exclusive social relations. According to the existing information and user's understanding of the virtual community, the type of virtual community has Usenet, BBS, MUD, blog (blog) community, Graphic interactive community, and other types, these types of virtual communities, although different forms of expression, but its purpose is very similar, are provided to the network users a pure electronic spirit of the ownership of space and communication space. As the virtual community began to become a part of people's daily life, the form of community began to become diverse, in addition to the above mentioned a number of virtual community development form and direction, more worthy of our attention, is a virtual graphical community.

Compared to the traditional virtual community, the graphic virtual community has more characteristics of the community, because in the traditional virtual community, users are mostly based on words, the so-called community feel, almost all just exist in the user's mind, as the traditional text mud game, fighting is only in the same text. But in the graphic virtual community, by constructing a visible community space, the graphic virtual community can simulate the life of the whole real community very concretely and substantively, and have unlimited extensibility. Taking Habbo as an example, the constantly expanding and almost realistic architectural style, you can even find in the virtual community with the reality of the building and exactly, through a network line will be far away from the far apart of old and new friends together. Just imagine that you can distinguish different community partners simply by their appearance, rather than by ID, you can even guess the character of each other by different shapes, these are the characteristics that the traditional virtual community cannot have.

Habbo, for example, has 10 different shape parameters for each character in Ha bao, and each parameter can have more than 10 number of different numbers, so in the Ha bao, you can use a variety of parameter settings to create only their own role, so that everyone has a completely different shape.

In the Harley, you can create your own room, and make sure that each room has its own unique side, perhaps it will be an ideal home, bar, dance floor, park, concerts, members of the imagination, and free to set up activities or play a variety of rules, to attract more members to participate in the sharing of ideas.

In such an environment, you can in the virtual community world, to hold dances, receptions, concerts, fashion show and even concerts, in addition to these, Habbo also specially tailor-made for its members of a variety of multiplayer competitive built-in games, such as Habbo table tennis, Habbo diving, the game can be two or more ha baby at the same time participate, Showdown

Obviously, such a feature is not available to other ordinary virtual communities, or even impossible.

Mail, watching news, reading information, already is the mature Internet pattern, each kind of community should say the development space is still very big, is also the Internet development pattern, through the brief contrast, we can see the graphical virtual community strong vitality as well as the unique community sex, just like the blog community which the user pays attention to, The graphical community will soon become a new standard for virtual communities because of its characteristics.
