Differences Between Groups and Networks, CCK11

This is my main list of differences between Groups and Networks:

Networks don’ t have a leader or owner. (self learning) They don’t have a name (brand) or organization.

Groups are not open since you have to subscribe to participate in a group. They have a leader or owner and are organized. (they don’t promote self learning)

Twitter is a network
Twitter hashtags are groups

Facebook is a nework.
Facebook groups and pages are groups

Del.icio.us is a network
Del.icio.us tags are groups????

Do groups and networks follow the “90-9-1″ Rule for Participation ????
