SPP2 quote

"The essential point of networking is human contact. Business has killed networking by making it something for the career oriented person." (Jools, 2008)."

I do not think that business has killed networking just opened a new network for the career oriented person. Networking does not just have to be about business orientated subjects, a network can be linked by friendships, ideas, opinions etc all subjects that are not related to the business world, though I do feel that business has over the recent years gained more power over the word 'network.
