Starting your own Facebook- Lessons Learned from NASA’s Spacebook Project » Socialfeds

I love the name, Spacebook. This is a very nice post listing lessons learned about launching a successful social network. Lot's of good resource links for further reading too.

Spacebook is an enhanced Intranet designed around user profiles, forums, groups, and social tagging. The goal of the project is to use social media to help NASA be more competitive and innovative, encourage collaboration and information sharing, and take better advantage of the information & resources they already have. Emma Antunes (@eantunes), Project Manager for Spacebook, recently gave a great webinar to share how she approached this project, got the buy-in from users, contractors, and management, and other invaluable lessons she learned in getting this implemented.
