Parenting communities are becoming increasingly common on the web as mothers and fathers turn to social networks to share stories and elicit advice about raising children.
Circle of Moms, a social network for yes, moms, is celebrating its year anniversary with steady growth numbers and a few new features. The site is what you'd expect from its name— a community that lets moms connect with friends, talk about their kids, and join topical Q&A communities, with subjects ranging from recipe swapping, special needs children, and discipline for toddlers. Since the site's launch last October, Circle of Moms has accumulated 7 million registered moms and is adding 150,000 new moms per week, according to the site's co-founder and CEO
Ephraim Luft. And the social network saw 2.1 million unique visitors last month, according to
Quantcast.

The study of social networks has thrown up more than a few surprises over the years. In a social network, most nodes are not linked to each other but can easily be reached by a small number of steps. This is the so-called small worlds network.

Virtual currency platform
gWallet is announcing a partnership with online privacy certification company TRUSTe to reinforce gWallet ethical guidelines in the virtual currency space. gWallet partners with both brands and game developers to bring users virtual currency offers on games within social networks. Following the
Scamville controversy in the virtual offers space, the startups which provide these offers on games have been working to rid their platforms of misleading offers. In fact, Offerpal CEO
George Garrick promised to take a leadership position in cleaning up scammy ads. Competitor Gwallet has also promised to never offer these type of ads, and is now partnering with TRUSTe to certify gWallet's privacy practices. TRUSTe will also monitor offers submitted by gWallet‘s advertisers to ensure they aren't misleading. For example, previously fake quizzes would be tied to long term mobile subscriptions, malware-laden toolbar downloads and and other scams. And Gwallet is betting on TRUSTe to keep these offers at bay.
