social networking

My teenage neice introduced me to facebook last year and at the time she and her 14 year old friends could not get enough of it. I guess at 15 they're kinda over it, in fact i think it's uncool now in the little circle. Funny how things like this go in and out of favor. I think it's a pretty useful way to keep in touch with people far away and just for plain fun. i realize there are differences in why a person would use one or the other, but i see a lot of overlapping with blogging...and i found several people's myspace pages that had similar content to their blog- mostly due to lack of time, no doubt, but it's really hard to imagine maintaining all these things long term. i need more sleep than i used to. Anyway, it was fun to look for long lost people and, like blogging, fun to see people's creativity and "other" side.
