From friendfeed to facebook to twitter there are tons of different platforms for forming community. Some are well suited for the animal industry…some not so much.

Either way, it almost takes an online marketing & social media expert to work it all out. Unfortunately not all of us know someone of that ilk and we have to forge ahead on our own.

It’s Wednesday and time for another dose of online horse games. I started cataloguing these games some time ago when I wrote a post about them & with reader additions the list continues to grow.
