Week 7: Social Networking

Social networking - another great little video clip to describe how it works.
Signed up to Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/) & found Ed on holiday in the USA. Hopefully he will be my friend. Would like to hear about his adventures since he left us. Facebook is a bit Americanised I think, still, I can see it does have great potential for making contact with old friends etc.
Bebo (http://www.bebo.com/) - a bit teeny-bopper 4 me - I had trouble reading some of the messages, (showing my age I think) and there is obviously no censoring of language required! Can see the attraction for the younger set.
Hennepin County Library http://www.facebook.com/pages/Minnetonka-MN/Hennepin-County-Library/ - nice to see a message from Manukau Libraries on the wall. Guess this is an alternative way of getting noticed by the Facebook users.
