There are others that also include games.
can be classified into two groups:
-Open: They are public, ie you can enlist in your homepage, you can view the profile, or part of users without being registered. Most of them belong to this group.
-Closed: Need a member of her pa invite you to register and you can only see the profile of the people you're registered with them.
Business in these pages is uncertain, because most of them are free, all you have to do is fill out a form requesting your personal data (name, place and date of birth ...), email and that you accept the conditions, and as we know for make money online people have to pay for it, as happens in real life, so some include advertising, but where is the business if no one clicks on it?
The phenomenon of Social Networking began in 1995 with the creation of
classmates.com a website that allowed users to their old friends will find yourself at first was only available to U.S. and Canada.

In 2004, a student at Harvard University created a page so that students could learn about their college between them and slowly began opening, first national and then international, for which it was translated into several languages \u200b\u200bincluding English, French, German ... It is currently the world's largest, has more than 200 million users and revenues of $ 150 million annually.
This network includes some of the above a section of games to be that way more hooked hahahaha (just kidding, but rather vitiate games)
In 2006, an American exchange student decides create a closed network, at first was only available for college students, but now for everyone over 14 years, our country is the greatest that exists, but is suffering a slowdown in the number of users, while Facebook is becoming more popular.
One of the successes of its growth is that it is a closed network and need invitation to join, but that is only available for Spain, preventing its growth and international expansion since most people who use them are high school and college students. How do we know Spain is one of the main destinations for Erasmus and exchange students, so that opening Europe, do not tell the whole world in a small time period allowed to return to resume their growth rates.
These are only the most important, but there are many others like Hi5, Meetic, Badoo, Sonic trying to break into this new emerging market.
