Bridging v.s. Bonding

Bonding sites


FirstClass (AIC School Networking Site)
 -it bonds people on common ground
 -the students share the College as a common area
 -a person must have a login and password to obtain information from the site (must be a student of AIC)


Sorority Websites (or Fraternities)
 -it's meant to bond those with interest and with memberships
 -the entire website doesn't need a membership


Help( geek ) Desks (geeksquad.com)
 -it bonds those who are looking for help for their electronics
 -unlike the others there is no necessity for a membership
