Social Networking

I've had a Facebook account for the past several months. My joining was prompted by an upcoming ten year high school reunion. The planning committee is using Facebook's group feature to inform everyone of event details. I have enjoyed reconnecting with classmates from high school and college. I like how easy it is to set up a profile page and make comments on some one's "wall." I also like that I am emailed when my status has changed (i.e. someone has posted to my page or invited me to be a friend). I visited MySpace and found it more difficult to navigate. It appeared busy and not as streamlined as Facebook. I think these sites are popular for the very reason I have been drawn to them. They allow someone to get in touch with people from different seasons of life. It's also fun to see pictures of how people have changed, or not. :)
