A Comprehensive List of the Top Social Networking Sites
I’ve prepared a comprehensive table to reference most of the major Social Media sites on the Internet at the moment. Instead of just focusing on the top three or four, try and leverage some of the smaller sites which maybe a little more relevant to what you are trying to publish.
Granted, they may only send a fraction of the traffic compared to the biggest social networks, however, it shouldn’t be overlooked as it could yield traffic and links which would otherwise be wasted.
Note: If you feel that I have missed one, please contact me and I’ll add it to the list.
I’d like to thank Brent Csutoras for his valuable input.

I think this is the best ever web page that I have ever read all my life. What a great collection of social networks!
Great. Thanks.

Nice list!
There’s also a cool single-page social media aggregator created by Thomas Marban at popurls.com — really cool. For our home in Bali, we made balinews.web.id based on the same concept.

Wow thank you so much
This is a really good list.
When your trying to drive traffic it helps to have a resource like this.
One thing I’ve noticed is Digg is getting way to big for it’s britches and has started cutting people.
So I’m looking for one with those quality’s.
