3. The social graph
We join and participate in social networks
Family Friends of Friends in order to form identity, personal
(overseas, interstate)
relationships and a sense of community.
Relevance in the social graph is
ME determined by personal relationships
Friends from home and not my communities of interest.

10. The business owner’s online toolkit
I just want some tools ‘off the shelf’ to:
Small business owners don’t have time • communicate with my customers
or $ to break through advertising noise • buy and sell stuff
in the attention economy. Make it affordable, with ways that I can
find new customers too. So I have time
to see my family at the end of the day.
