Friendster I didn't like either. Facebook is what I use, and I like it a lot for being about to keep in touch with a lot of people. I don't keep much personal information on it since I think it is pretty fake and difficult to sum up personality in a few words...<br />I think the concept is great though for keeping in touch with people, but the sites can't be too complicated like myspace--then it's not fun.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31906869.post-66823957405591622342006-12-06T17:18:00.000-08:002006-12-06T17:18:00.000-08:00I've never tried these sites because my impression...I've never tried these sites because my impression was that they are more for teenagers, and this was not the main audience I wanted to correspond with. I could be wrong, but it sounds like I haven't missed anything!

I don't have a MySpace account, nor have i ever, but I have searched to find a few people.<br /><br />I think ultimately it may have to do with the purpose for being there or here. Though, I can't pin down what that is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31906869.post-60547093451532854652006-12-06T09:34:00.000-08:002006-12-06T09:34:00.000-08:00Mariana: Oh man, that sounds annoying!!!

But you know, we can't all be perfect, so I'll let this slide.<br /><br />Silverneurotic: I understand that, it's not like you can be at the computer all day! <br /><br />Tara: Yeah, catching up with friends is such a good thing though, that it kinda makes up for how annoying those sites can be!<br /><br />Jos: Haha, sort of like those people are fishing for compliments when they do that! I haven't checked my friendster thing in a while, but I kept getting some pretty lewd messages...<br /><br />Mrmanuel: You are not alone, I have many friends who love Myspace, and I mean, it is a wonderful idea.

I like it because I can connect with old friends, and stay in contact with them. I can drop them a quick note, see some of their currect pictures, etc. I love it.MrManuelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12003292550689890179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31906869.post-37013539927732455282006-12-06T08:11:00.000-08:002006-12-06T08:11:00.000-08:00i have a friendster account. mostly cause everyone...i have a friendster account. mostly cause everyone of my friends have one. supposedly, it's so you can <i>keep in touch</i>. i dont use it much though. i used to but it all seem pointless and i didnt bother much anymore. <br /><br />i hate it when people try to add you and they dont have clue who you are. and i hate how some people take closeup photos of themselves and then put the caption like "urgh.. im ugly"/"im a mess". dude, if you dont like the photo, dont post it on your page!<br /><br />sometimes, when i have nothing else to do, i'll browse my friends page and have a good laugh. the photos some people post can be pretty ridiculous.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31906869.post-20244503754681150252006-12-06T07:07:00.000-08:002006-12-06T07:07:00.000-08:00I have a MySpace account too, and I spend most of ...I have a MySpace account too, and I spend most of my time swearing at it. Funny how even though it's down for "maintenance", the same crap crops up after the alleged "maintenance" is completed. Last night I wasn't able to look at any bulletins because they said that section was down for "special maintenance" for an hour. I checked back two hours later and it was still down. The only real reason I'm on there is to catch up with friends now. That's the only reason now.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16103812856035857566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31906869.post-20666113138028827412006-12-06T06:13:00.000-08:002006-12-06T06:13:00.000-08:00I have a My Space, don't use it too often, mainly ...I have a My Space, don't use it too often, mainly use it for music and to keep in the know with a few authors I like that have a myspace page.

I've read lots of railing against MySpace on other blogs. The consensus being that MySpace is blogging for young adults (not just teen but people in their 20s). Not my demographics.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31906869.post-8119435602624897732006-12-05T21:13:00.000-08:002006-12-05T21:13:00.000-08:00My pet hate is MSN, because at least in my experie...My pet hate is MSN, because at least in my experience people only use it when they have nothing important to say, and just want to waste your time and theirs. A guy I knew never had anything to say about any of the subjects I talk about on my blog, didn't really care about anything in my personality, but would "stay in touch" by saying on MSN "Hi, lovely morning, I'll talk to you later." If he didn't have anything to say to me, then why did he bother me? It felt like having this stranger peeking through my window just to check up on me and go. To say nothing of a girl who became obsessed with her ex-boyfriend and used MSN to complain to me about him five times a day, writting sheets and sheets. I'll never use <i><b>that</i></b> technology again.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14679839426291667211noreply@blogger.com
