Social Networking and Education

I'm looking at my social networking accounts and I see mild potential for academic application. I believe it would be easier to apply the social networking concept to adult training than high school or even college education. The younger people, around 13-18 years old, tend to get a little...off track. Using social networking for these applications would be complicated. Again, I would advocate internal social networking sites that limit access to irrelevant information.

Just a thought.
