New Google Research On Social Networks 95
mantis2009 writes "Paul Adams, a senior user experience researcher at Google, has posted a slideshow from a recent presentation that shows insightful research into how people use social networking technologies. The presentation describes several shortcomings of existing technology, and it highlights specific modalities that current technology (ahem, Facebook) gets wrong. Adams concludes that social networking applications are a 'crude approximation' of real-life social networks. 'People don't have one group of friends,' Adams research in several different countries shows that in reality, most people have between four to six groups of friends. He argues that social networking applications need to be built with that reality in mind."

I was always under the impression that that disclaimer meant "Slowness, Choppiness and/or lag may be present during online game play". Not that there's user generated material within the game. If what they say "chat or skins or maps or what have you" is supposed to be meant with their disclaimer, they may want to modify the verbiage a little bit (e.g."Game Content May Change During Online Play").
