Social networks are online
communities generally consisting of people with similar
interests. The sites usually require the user to "sign up"
for an account where they can create their profile then view
and share information with other members.
Most social networks allow you
to post information, images, videos, etc. to your area and
allow you to participate in group discussions, surveys and
other social activities.
Social networks can be found
on any topic from knitting to business networking! Wikipedia
has a
fairly detailed list of social networking sites.

the "etiquette" used on the internet in social forums, chat rooms, discussion boards, e-mails, etc. It is hard to describe as it may change for each area - basically the approved code of conduct for each situation.

Twittering: (also: tweeting) - the name for the short update messages sent when using the Twitter site. Similar to the chirping of a bird!

Wi-Fi
: from Wireless Fidelity - a common term for a wireless network. Very common to coffee shops where you can surf the web on their Wi-Fi connection.

Webinar:
an online meeting using the internet and phone lines. You view the
visible meeting information via a computer / monitor and communicate using a conference call on the phone. This format is becoming very common and can include 100's of participants!
