i was completely oblivious to it until a couple of weeks ago... got my own space at the weekend and have done no homework since!!!

is this the end of my student career already?? eek!!!!!

Not only have you, me and nearly 80m other people discovered MySpace but according to the Financial Times today, Google and Microsoft have discovered it too!

I have used MSN Spaces for ages. Same idea. (see signature, but not if you bore easily)

YoSemite

magic innit!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm obsessed

worzel

I'm not obsessed (much) just lazy. It is the easiest way to keep friends and family up to dated with stories and photos.

I use Livejournal - but MySpace looks good too

I was reading that the MySpace thing is actually kind of over now and that the ground-swell of users (US college students) had moved on to other sites leaving dormant pages. Think it was an article on Wired. I forget the name of the site they've gone to, but it boasted millions of new users in a short space of time...

YoSemite

well there's certainly still a lot of people hanging about on myspace!

i just like it cos it's easy to use, and you can use html to add fancy little things like slideshows, music, backgrounds in a v v fast manner!

also good for tracking people down.... but bad because other people can find you too!

Facebook? WAYN? Bebo? Friendster? LinkedIn? Orkut?

There are so many of these social networking sites now!

Bebo is one that is growing very quickly apparently


Cos Myspace is getting to mainstream for a lot of teens, ha ha!

I've gone for Wordpress.org; free, and I can do what I like to it!(on my own domain)


But for beginners I always reccomend blogger.com or wordpress.com
Oh, I guess myspace is alright too.
Haven't looked at Bebo...


OMG, that WAYN :scared: I signed on because a friend contacted me, but the first day I had single guys try to chat to me! How annoying! It came across as if it was a dating site!!

YoSemite

yeah WAYNs dodgy as!!!

find by me if myspace gest too mainstream..... more room for me!!! hehehe

Hutch

It's a totally rank looking site though isn't it. I signed up a while ago, like you do, but never did anything with it. Guess I'm either not in the target demographic, or one of those people that prefer websites that don't look like they were designed by someone on crack.

Simone

I'm afraid I must agree (becoming a total design nerd these days, with my getting into this whole blogging thing, and my husband being a graphic designer... )

Very handy things though(myspace etc). A few friends of mine are in bands, so it's good for them(still, if they tried, they could have music on their own websites too. But it's nice and easy on myspace, and that's what it's all about of course!)
Like this one: http://www.myspace.com/rambleandthesleepers
Could be worse...
They have their own site too, but that's not getting anywhere very quickly...


Anyway, it all doesn't matter what it looks like if you read blogs via a feedreader, ha ha! (like I do with your blog Worzel (you need to update more often, I like reading about people's everyday lives ) )
I use www.bloglines.com
Have 80 feeds in there now :scared:
It's quicker than having to check all those sites though! Luckily they don't all update very often!

Wayn you say ....
