Thing #18

Facebook and Myspace have been two of the most renowned social networking sites in today's day and age. Since the beginning college, I have had a facebook account as well as a myspace account. Both of which I use to communicate with friends and family in many different ways. You use both of these as reminders to remind you of which events you will be attending or someone's birthday you forgot about. Something they just added not too long ago to both sites is the chat feature. I haven't found myself using this too often, but this feature is neat because it allows you to chat with any and all of your friends whenever you are online. You could use this in the education department a couple different ways. From an educators standpoint, you could keep track of the students in your classroom or even school. From a students standpoint, you could use the chat feature as a way of online tutoring.
