Friend adds for trafficking and Fox ownership, makes sense. However, saying that nothing about Myspacers is unique because everybody is blogging and talking about themselves, as you put it (more or less) is a bit fallacious. The same could be said for everyone walking, or everyone working,or even creating a web page where they...talk about Myspace, etc. I think that expressing yourself is the only good thing about Myspace! And if you let your kids in on it, you might learn something about them and their life outside of what they tell you. they prob have one you don't know about already anyway ;) Serafino -- 2008-12-01T05:31:39-05:00 http://www.shawnolson.net/a/1284 there is nothing wrong with myspace, j/k, you did raise some good views and such but it's still addicting! dean white 2006-08-07T03:52:06-05:00 http://www.shawnolson.net/a/1284 Hello Shawn, i really enjoyed you article about My Space and its effects on Teenagers. I couldnt agree with you more actually regarding expected results and the actuall result of having such an online pressence. At first i didnt really take My Space or Freindster online comunitys very seriuosly, I saw an enviroment where anyone can easily creat a web page and have intant online pressence. I program in html and I am adefinatly not the worlds renown web publisher but I did see an intra net where people are comunicating and meeting. Reguarding the Idea of "Our Space" Imagine, (and this sounds said but maybee true).. "Family Space" the worlds favorite online comunity family, you know like TV show familys. They can instill values and the need to be accepted and to share. Maybee even to some who well just dont connect with their physical familys or live to far away and cant share the holidays and the birthdays and so forth. Just an idea Thanks Shawn, I really enjoy your community here at artistic network, let me know if there is anything I could do to help Roger Cornwall Roger Cornwall 2006-06-02T11:57:22-05:00
