Here is as comprehensive list of players in the space that I could compile. I selected them based on my own professional sense of what I thought was important in regards to what they brought to the table and for whom. Some are more platform based than others, but I thought all of them were very relevant to where we are as of today. They are not in any particular order:
KickApps
Sparta Social Networks
Metro Mojo
Neighborhood America
Small World Labs
Select Minds
Igloo Software
Community Server
Ramius
Corespeed
IHype
Phpizabi
Elgg
Boonex
Hivelive
Lithium
Clearspace
Intronetworks
Onesite
Awareness Networks
Mzinga
Blogtronix
Wordframe
Bluepulse
Ideastrom
In conclusion, this list will expand and contract as conditions continue to evolve. Though some of the platforms/companies are not pure play, they all are contributing to the conversation, in what can only be construed as rhe dawning and evolution of a new digital phenomenon. Did I miss any in your opinion? What are your thoughts on the list? Are some better than others?
Marc - Thanks - Great Article,
I am searching for the same sort of list for the emerging markets of MENA and APAC, do you have a comparable list? Also if you want to include another one to watch I would also add H2O New Media out of Dubai that seem to be hot on the toes of MZINGA and Kick Apps in the GCC. In fact I will publish my list for the emerging markets soon on here. Thanks again for a great article, very informative. Also interesting to see what companies are investing in Social media after doing some digging. You just saved me at least ten hours work.
