I do have a facebook account, but I do not feel comfortable posting that link on this blog. My profile is set to private. If you want to be my friend on facebook, look me up and make a request...
I had heard about myspace in high school and was not really interested in signing up. My friend was so excited about myspace that she created an account for me! Once I learned that many of my friends from school was on myspace, I became addicted!
Then in college, I heard about facebook. I was not interested in signing up since I already had my myspace account. Well, the same friend that I talked about earlier created a facebook account for me. Once I realized that I could easily contact my apsu friends I became addicted to facebook and rarely went back to myspace.
I think that it is harder to find people on myspace and I received a lot of spam mail and weird friends. I think that Myspace was less safe when I first began using it. I liked that only my friends or people from austin peay could look at my facebook page.
I do not feel that an educator should use facebook as a resource. I work at a summer day camp and some of my campers have found me on myspace. I am not allowed to be there friend outside of camp due to many laws...I do not think that educator's should be communicating with students on myspace or facebook. It is not necessary.
