'If Facebook was a country, it will be fourth largest in the world'. Such is the volume and usage of social networking sites among organizations.

others use Twitter or other social network to capture new customers. The potentials of social networks have become clear to companies, and thus is the adoption of multiple social networks by organizations for purposes ranging from collaboration to promotion of their brands. Here, we take a look at some of the upcoming trends and technologies in social networking, and how is Web 3.0 going to change the landscape.
While it's hard to predict what the future of Web would look like, one thing is apparent. Today you don't need a PC or a laptop to browse Web. Browsers have reached almost everywhere -right from mobile devices to gaming consoles (Wii and PS3) to even television. Even in places where there is no browser (as yet) such as Xbox360, Twitter and Facebook have already made their way to. New firmware of PS3 also as Facebook. Social networking vendors are making sure that you can access them from where you are, without needing a computing device.
Everything mobile
One of the key reasons why microblogging got so popular so quickly has been that, the vendors in the space have targeted mobile users since beginning. They realized that, for a person to fully utilize the power of social networking, he should be able to update his microblogs from anywhere and at anytime. Even today majority of Twitter usage comes from mobile devices.With social networks leveraging mobile devices more and more, location based social networking is also gaining momentum. In a research done last year by ABI Research, location based social networking is expected to be a $3.3 billion market by 2013.
Twitter would be launching geo-tweets very soon, which will allow users to embed their location with their tweets. Similarly a company called PhotoWALL displays real-time media streams (or WALLs) by presenting live
media precisely when it happens. It allows mobile users to send live photos along with various geo-tags and VoiceTags to an attractive searchable website for public, network or private viewing. It also enables simultaneous live uploading of mobile media to Facebook, Flickr and Twitter. Location based social networking also opens a whole new range of possibilities such as location based advertising, finding like-minded people who are near to you, recommending places to friends, finding reviews what people around you have to say about a particular place or product, etc.
