Netlog, Social Community for Youngster

During this week I had the pleasure to receive the visit of Lorenz Bogaert, Ceo of Netlog.

We had the pleasure to lunch with Michele Ficara Manganelli, president of Assodigitale, talking about Social Media scenario, in one of the most beautful place in Brera.

I would like to point it out some interesting evidence that emerged from this conversation:

Netlog's is Europe's Popular online community.
Netlog is an online community site with a Focus on fun and entertainment. The website is very popular among youngsters in and outside Europe. (In Italy there are 4 mln active users).
Netlog was founded in 2003 by Lorenz Bogaert and Toon Coppens in Ghent, Belgium.

It counts more than 55 million members worldwide and is available in more than 38 different languages.

In the past years, we've seen a hype called social media, but Lorenz also believe that we're past that moment now and that an online community as Netlog is here to stay. Netlog is not a hype, it's a fact. Research has shown that social media are today an integral element of the communication mix, just like chat, sms, mail, mobiles or going to the pub and meeting friends.

Yahoo! Italy is the offical sales house of Netlog. For that reason we had also the opportunity to enjoy ourselves to their beutiful party @ Spazio Edra in Milan.
