Social Networking Websites Review 2012 - TopTenREVIEWS. The Top Social Networking Sites. Social networking websites have been around since the mid-90's, but in recent years, social networking has exploded across the web.
The Web 2.0 initiative has made modern social networking sites increasingly popular and easier to use than the initial wave of sites that launched in the 90's. Last year, Facebook surged past MySpace to become the most popular social network. Flixster also gained ground, overtaking Classmates, and LinkedIn rose in popularity as more people focused on their jobs. And while Twitter is as much of a social messaging platform as a social network, it has definitely led an invasion into the top social networks over the past two years.
