Being entertained by Cisco
Cisco is adding social networking colors to its palette. Their newly-announced EOS (Entertainment Operating System) is a service play aimed at media companies. Although details are sketchy, the technology appears to be have the capability of building communities with social-networking tools as well as presumably, some kind of load-balancing capabilty, since that's a core area of the company's expertise.
It will be interesting to see if they build specialized hardware boxes that are optimized for this kind of social traffic.
