    Microsoft launched its own social network So.Cl (Pronounced 'social'). They claim that it is to help students and aid online research.

    According to Microsoft

    "So.cl combines social networking and search, to help people find and share interesting web pages in the way students do when they work together."


    But the question is..

    DO WE NEED ONE MORE SOCIAL NETWORK?

    Share your thoughts?

    Well, it is just a beta test.

    If they decide to join in, the more the merrier.

    Not sure it will be competitive in comparison with FB, Google+ and others.

    I think it's just survival of the fittest in this era. The big guns with the likes of Microsoft, Google and Facebook are doing this all the time.
