общение - Dialogue
гадания - Guessings

general terms, up to you what to do with them. Personaly, I would not focus on them, but you may think differently.

гадания is more like fortune-telling and as you can see from
Yandex is quite heavily searched. (http://wordstat.yandex.ru/?cmd=words&page=1&text=гадания&geo=&text_geo=)

Both words is correct, "общение" is very good domain for social network.

Thank you very much all of you. I wasn't so sure about them. I guess fortune-telling is pretty popular in Russia.

Dondomainer, I noticed you're a native speaker. Do you think "общение" can also be used in the meaning of "dating" as well?

Kindest Regards

Yes, "dating" can be associate with "общение", also "общение" can be associate with "conversation".
