Social Networks for Everyone
Josh Wolf checks in with a review of several social networks for the religiously inclined, including Beliefnet and faithnet, and some the interesting buyouts taking place with these social networks.
I asked Madati if any Christian groups had objected to Faithbase's association with Glee, and he acknowledged that some people had asked, but he reassured me that Faithbase is "a totally independent social network for those types of consumers." He went on to point out how News Corp's recent acquisition of Beliefnet demonstrates that secular companies can get into the faith-based market.
Madati also pointed out that homosexuality and Christianity are not mutually exclusive. I asked him if Faithbase planned to develop a component for LGBT Christians, and he explained that the company is not interested in shaping the conversation so much as it is in supporting user-generated dialogue.Source: news.com
