I have seen many comments about myspace accounts. I have one that I use to keep in touch with old theatre friends mostly. I would love to make contact with some of you in the real world. I have a blogger account too if anyone would like that. So PM me please if anyone would like to swap Myspace accounts, or the link to my daily (well tri-weekly) blog.

Thanks!

I will PM you with mine. I like it because it's so simple to use and doesn't have the spam problems MySpace has.

Facebook is easy to use

and pretty safe in that no one can see your page unless you give them permission. If you decide to set up a facebook page let me know and I will help you get settled in Smiling

Hey thanks

One probably old fashioned thing that is holding me back too, beyond no time because working extra job, is that those sites are where SD is, and what we are fighting with her about. I don't want her to see mine, I think?

We heard what was on hers because she has my nieces and nephews that are her age 'friended' and they told me the crazy things she was saying there. But I will look into it, thanks for the help!!

I also want to put our pictures but don't want her to see those either! I guess I won't know til I get in there - but the only way I want to do it is if I can make mine ADULTS ONLY!!

Adults only...

Even if such a setting exists it will not protect you, because most teens put their age at 18 or older, no matter how old they are. But you can make it completely private I believe, only sharing with specific myspace or facebook people. “I never gave away anything without wishing I had kept it; nor kept it without wishing I had given it away.” ~Louise Brooks

I don't know much about

Submitted by KarmaQueen on Sun, 05/18/2008 - 3:46pm.

I don't know much about MySpace, but on Facebook you choose who can see you page and photo albums. There is no way anyone can get in without you approving it. Even with people you add as a friend you can still only give them access to parts of your profile if you don't want them to see certain things. As with any form of posting on the internet, don't post stuff that you don't want anyone to see.

Just join as a new member

And then MySpace will give you a link. You could try Facebook instead if you want. As I posted above it is simpler with less spam.

I joined both to try to find old theatre acquaintances, and have had wonderful luck reconnecting with people I haven't seen in years.

Good networking tool too.

I also have a blogger blog, which is what I use all the time to write. If you're interested I will send that link. That one you don't have to join to read or comment (though you have to comment as anonymous if you don't have a blogger account and then mention in the comment who you are so I know.) I also have Cafe Mom but NEVER really check that one. It's too "busy" a site for me.

And somewhere in cyber space I still have a Xanga, but I never used it, just signed up to read something a friend sent. That's why Blogger's my favorite. I can post and send it to my friends/family and no one has to join to read it. It may sound like I know what I'm doing with all those accounts, but I really only check My Space and Facebook when I get an alert that someone found me or wrote me. I haven't learned enough about those kind of accounts to do all the interesting things people do.

I have to say though, some of them (Steve!) I have a hard time reading the info over the graphics!
