Welcome to the Ripple6 Blog

Ripple6 is pleased to announce our new blog.  

Here we’re not going to be your typical corporate blog we are looking to be a little bit more useful, and fun.  But, yes we will end up talking about our products and services but we’ll do it being a company that sells our social networking technology and helps our partners create great social networks for their audiences.

At Ripple we believe that activity and involvement is what makes a social network.  It’s what takes a big software site with some connection features and technology and turns it into a community where people go to talk and share their thoughts, worries, dreams and fears.  That community then grows into something that people love, trust and depend upon for news, ideas, and advice.  We’re proud of the fact that our technology helps to make this type of community happen.

Whew!  Got that corporate mumbo jumbo out of the way, now I can be real.

In this blog I’ll be sharing some of the stories that happen on our social networks and networks we manage for our clients, while carefully respecting the privacy of our users.  We’ll also offer advice on some of the nuts and bolts of  building social networks such as:

• Best practices in social networking, blogging, and social marketing
• How to guides on social marketing, networking, blogging, etc…
• Care and feeding of successful Social Networks
• Creating mutually beneficial interactions on social networks
• And the do’s and don’ts of social networking and social marketing

Along the way we’ll also talk about the Ripple6 family, everyone who works here and what we’re doing. (So this is a warning to all of our employees that we are going to talk about you when you do something great!) And we’ll tell you what we are doing in our real lives outside of the office. We hope that you’ll enjoy the blog and find it interesting and that you’ll come back often.

Thank you for visiting.
