myspace & facebook

Trying to keep up with today's technology, i already i have a myspace and facebook profile. I started my myspace in 2005 and succumbed to facebook this past fall. i never use myspace anymore, it's so in the past. There aren't as many users on myspace and i have found more friends from my past on facebook. it seems that facebook is also an older crowd of users and it seems that there are less shady people you have to watch out for.



The library has 118 fans on facebook. it has a lot of helpful info on the site for the fans of the library page.

the library myspace page also has helful info on its site. 2 interesting elements are the shelfari and the ask a librarian link.

though i'm considering canceling my myspace account because i go on it once every few months, it has reaquainted me with a few friends, one from high school in particular who became a good friend again. I'm glad i had a myspace but it's time to probably say goodbye. I'm a fan of facebook. i have also become reaquainted with good friends from the past thru it so i'm glad i joined, though i was reluctant for awhile. there are more people on facebook. it seems more people friendly. these social networking sites really allow you to connect with people, some that you may have forgotten about from your past, or just stay connected with more people that you just don't have time to call or email often.

Twitter? Twhat's the point?

I just opened a twitter account and i just don't see any reason to have one. It was very confusing and i don't have too many friends on there. So i'm only 'following' 5 people. and it doesn't seem as though they use it either. some of their last updates were in august.

I just don't see myself ever using twitter to go there to update my status. why does everyone have to know what i'm doing all the time anyway? Do my friends really need to know I'm sitting at the reference desk? or that i'm tired...again. We have no privacy anymore as it is and i've decided to keep my exhaustion and hunger pangs private.

I'll get off my soapbox now.
