Since I am very familiar with MySpace and its features from spending time visiting the pages of my kids and their friends (I don't have my own page), I decided to create a Facebook account instead. I can see how its streamlined content and features would appeal to an older crowd than MySpace, but I have to say that I didn't think it was as much fun to view. I don't see myself using a social networking site at this point in my life (I can't keep up with the relationships I already have!), but I think is a wonderful resource for people who are. Just call me antisocial...
I also checked out GoodReads, the electronic version of my trusty old reading journal. I like how you can organize the books you've read, those you'd like to read, and even add your own reviews. I can also see its possibilities for sharing books you like with friends (library patrons?) through its social networking element. It would be fun to enter the contents of my journal, but even more fun to spend the time reading another book or two!
