One of the big issues about social network platforms was that once Facebook made its platform available, and MySpace and LinkedIn followed, it looked like developers would have to port their apps to each social network.

MySpace and Facebook weren’t being utilized by nonprofits in 2007 (except for a few early adopters) and Twitter did not exist. Blogging tools like WordPress and TypePad automatically add the code for page titles in every new blog post you publish to the Web. I have icons for Twitter, MySpace, Facebook, Flickr, etc.

Every second of every day, nonprofits on Facebook, Twitter , YouTube, Flickr , WordPress , Foursquare and other social media make obvious mistakes that are counterproductive to their presence on these sites.
