MANY-TO-MANY:Social Software

Welcome to Many-to-Many
Why the name? Two reasons. First, it's a good descriptor for the group writing this. We felt a multi-authored weblog was an ideal environment to talk about a medium that is defined by its multiple voices. Second, it's a key characteristic of many (if not most) of the technologies we'll be talking about.
So, what will we be talking about? The term "social software" has been getting a lot of attention in technology circles these days. From the Social Software track at O'Reilly's Emerging Technology Conference to the newly-formed Social Software Alliance, people involved with developing and deploying new technologies are increasingly interested in this topic. (Stay tuned for a post--or a few posts--on definitional issues.)

エコシステムの意味付け・位置付け・フォルダの名前について、「集合の集合」とか「社会の社会」とか、いろいろと考えていたけど、"m2m"というのはいいな、と思う。
