So here's what I've been thinking.  Across the internet there is this theme of becoming a "friend" and/or a "fan" of someone.  Most people assume this is only to be used when the person is known on a personal level.  Did you know that on some sites, the strength of your network there directly impacts the effect of your votes/opinions/submitted stories?

In light of this reality, I thought it would be good to encourage fellow hubbers to friend one another on these sites in order to not only increase our influence on these sites but also to increase our influence here at hubpages!

Here are the sites I'm active on:
Video submission sites
Youtube
metacafe
revver
veoh
viddler
crackle
stupid videos
yahoo video
blip.tv
dailymotion

Social networking sites
www.facebook.com (believe it or not, I'm not on there...YET!)
friendster
www.myspace.com (not on this as well!)

Content sharing sites
Stumbleupon
digg
propeller
reddit

Okay, that's not an extensive list, but if you're on any of those sites, friend/fan me and I'll do the same!  When integrated into your hubpages strategy, this will drive traffic to your hubs!  Not only that, the quality of your hub is greatly increased with a fantastic video.

Likewise, hubs will experience increased traffic when submitted to digg, propeller, etc. when we all friend one another and support one another on those sites!

Now this is exciting- this IS the power of networking, just like any other business people do it.
And we can do the same thing here at HubPages- this could be the "site for writers" just as MySpace is the site for musicians. This CAN happen.
Network,network,network.!!!!!

I would be pleased and honored to be friends or fans with any of you at any of these sites- and likewise would be honored if you would be mine!

friended you on stumbleupon. If you're on any of those other sites, friend me so i can friend you back. All those links I put up take you directly to my profiles to make it easy to friend me so I can reciprocate.

Okay, I'm going to go through your list. My name on Stumble is Sukee. On YouTube I'm Dadelus. I'll have to remind myself of my other names

Thanks uninvented, I friended you back!  Networking is awesome, isn't it?  I know this will all help us in the long run if we unite on these other sites!  Keep 'em coming folks!

I would love to know you all in other places online -- and love to support you there too!  I wish everyone here the best.  If we can help one another, I think that is awesome!

I will gather my url's for my social bookmarking sites and post them.  I would love to be "friends" with many of you on these sites:-) 

I guess I better get organized.  But if you search for LdsNana, LdsAskMormon or LdsNanaAskMormon, you can find me in a lot of place online.  Search google!  LOL

Thanks Missy!

I added Dorsi to my facebook, hope she accepts my request.

I am donnaleemason everywhere I think.

I am not too good at collecting my links so I will just check back here and as people post theirs, I will attempt to add the friendship.

Great idea.
