Last night's AMA Boston / Social Media Club event focused on social networking, and it closed with a discussion on mobile. Christopher, thanks for commenting on the Herald. They need it!! ;-) Craig and Jay: Whether you call it proximity, presence or just “mobile social networking,” it’s clear that things are headed in that direction.

I agree that all this electronic networking leads to more face-to-face contact. We saw this with videoconferencing which I think actually caused an increase in travel as it made it more feasible to run projects that included distributed teams.

I totally agree with this post. It's a proximity based network based on helping people.

I've coined a phrase, "Social Butterfly Networking", which you can read about in our blog, http://socbut.com/wordpress/?p=12. I specifically came up with this new proximity based networking because I felt that social networking needed to be re-localized and used to share information between people in the same community.
