What do you think, is Vizzed.com is a Social Network? I have described it to a couple people as such, but with super awesome vintage video games. There are similarities, but what's the difference?

I think you can classify it as a social network. There's a board, a chat room, IMing, PMing... that's pretty much the definition of a social network in the first place.

the_casualty : Thanks for your opinion. It's not like Facebook though. I don't think Vizzed.com was originally suppose to be like a social network. What do you think?

KBlood : I've heard that originally Vizzed was built off of the "EZ Board" software... and then David changed it to Acmlm format. It's kinda been changed from there... and although several changes have been made to it, several similarities remain.

I think originally it was made because Davideo7 at the time was ambitious, and as a result we are where we are today.

Yeah, I think this site would be considered a social networking site. It has games, yet so do Myspace and Facebook, and they're considered social networks. So yeah, I think this would fit into the category of a social network.

I consider a social network to be a site like Facebook or Myspace, Twitter, blah blah...
Anyways This site is a forum, but it does have a lot of features of a social network. Forums were really the original social network after e-mail, but thats different.

I say it's a forum, but to some it feels like a social network due to the chat rooms. Or thats what I think, which isn't saying much, haheh.

I think you all made great points. I especially like the idea of a forum and not being a social network. I never thought of it like that.

Yea, I guess vizzed could be classified as a social network. What, with the boards and chat rooms, that's what a bunch of social network have. My only objection is that alot of members don't go onto the board,and instead just play the games. But if you do go on the board, then it you probably do think it's a social network.

Perhaps it was not David's original intentions, but Vizzed has become quite a social network. I define social network as a website in which there is communication of some sort between individuals represented by their own user pic, username, etc.

Vizzed could totally be considered a social network. We have members who have their own profiles and can interact with one another via forums, chat, instant messaging, and private messaging. The only difference I see is that instead of Apps and Vids, we have the Retro Game and Toon Rooms.

I suppose you could call it a Social Network but the big difference is that with social networks, you usually interact with people you know in real life while on vizzed, most of the people you interact with are friends you just made and probably don't know in real life.

Maybe we could just call it a Social Network for Gamers?

I'd call it somewhat of a social network... it has all the communication requirements, the only real difference is that it links everyone despite how well you know them. You don't have to actually know the person to see what they're saying, it's an open forum rather than a network of your friends and your friends alone.
