Social software refers to applications which facilitate virtual connection and collaboration between people on a network. It is sometimes described succinctly as "connection comes before content."
The term came into more common usage in late 2002, largely due to Clay Shirky who organized a "Social Software Summit" in November 2002, having started to use the term in April 2002. Shirky defines social software as "stuff that gets spammed" [1]
Some of the following tools or concepts might not be strictly related to social software, but they surely have appeared on my path to social software knowledge. All in all, I had to gather all this stuff in some way.
