Contact management software, then, provides a one-dimensional view of your network: you can only see whom you know. Social network software can provide an n-dimensional view of your network, with a new dimension for every person in the network. While this may seem simple conceptually, it is very powerful in practical application. We fully expect a tighter integration of these two views to emerge. One thing's for sure: Your contact management software will likely include much greater integration with social network data two years from now than it does today.
