Social Networking

Networking

Social Networking brings a new method in keeping in touch with your social circle. In the latter we will cover (2) social networking sites known as Facebook and Myspace.

Making a social networking ID takes less than about 5 minutes. After logging into my Facebook I noticed a few things. The backround seems to be a basic white, with the theme of a modern effect, leaving the website with a clean cut interface. From how people portray themselves on this social site, you can paint a picture of someones lifestyle based on pictures and comments they post on their page and how they post onto other pages. Most friends made on Facebook are friends that a member has met or known through another friend. Facebooks market ranges from young adults to middle aged people.

Myspace shares many similarities that Facebook has, except it seems that a Myspace page is completely customizable by HTML code. Because of this, Myspace pages seem to be sloppier and not as aesthetically organized like Facebook. Also, Myspace has been geared toward musicians to display their music.

Facebook and Myspace have slight differences in how they are set up and ran, but essentially they are both social networks.
