Online networking groups can be a good source of meeting new people with similar interests. I recommend joining some of the groups such as MyLinkedIn Power Forum (Yahoo Group) to meet others who are starting out in networking. If you have an online networking group you would like to recommend, that would help people learn to network please let me know at
The following are online networking groups to help your create and develop your network:
