I want to bring voice to these socially networked hubs.

A simple V-xml api of some sort to add to like xing or linkedin or telecomcareers would be epic. I spoke with a few previously but the space and ability to turn your standard text messaging into voice messaging would be a very simple transition. Why are we still typing when we would always rather hear the voice.

Why hasn’t anybody came out with the social networking community that has total voice capability built into it.

The base and foundation is there.

Check out my latest post on this subject!

We need to break this down.

1. The Cool Hacker Chick – Not necessarily traditionally attractive (i.e. statuesque blonde) but often works the geek chic. Her salient characteristic is that she’s actually capable and contentful and interesting. And I say — Yes, more! Bring on the chicks with brains!

2. The Benevolent Butterfly – Very much the described Babe, but content doesn’t matter much, because she just adores putting people in touch with each other when they can help each other out. Genuinely community oriented. And I say – More, sure! But the hazard is that you often find the surface of the benevolent butterfly, but run into…

3. The Middle School Gossip – girl who discovered social networking in college (she may still be there), when she hadn’t really grown up anyway and still views the whole thing as an popularity contest whether she says so or not. So she’ll show cleavage and skin and say a whole lot of shocking shit to get friends and wangle connections for personal gain the way women have been doing for CENTURIES (but now there’s a handy little number to show how much better than any other given someone she is doing at this) but never do much of anything really significant. And she doesn’t put out. Or she does put out and then goes all fucking psycho on you and you wish you hadn’t even GONE there. One of her most defining characteristics, and why she needs all this attention in the first place is that she’s horrendously insecure. So, the more worried you are about this being you, ladies, the more likely it is. And I say – STAY ON MYSPACE! There’s no hope for that godforsaken wasteland of the web at this point anyway! But keep your flickr account so I don’t have to surf through the free sections of amateur porn sites ‘k.

If you can use a Middle School Gossip as a Benevolent Butterfly and not get burned, congratulations, grasshopper, you have mastered the way of the network.
