Facebook, Myspace, and all of those social networking sites are fun, don't get me wrong, but you have to be super careful with them. Colleges look at what you have on them, so if you have dumb videos and pictures of you holding a beer can or something then they might not accept you. You also have to be careful with your privacy setting. Because if you have it set on "anybody" than really ANYBODY can see it. One of my friends used to have one until she found out that there were 7 other people on facebook that were trying to "be her" by saying they went to the same school and everything. Also if you have it set on "friends of friends" then what if one of your friends adds anybody who asking them, then all of those random people can see where you live and all of that. So just be careful what you post, and just to be safe, like I do, don't put things like your zip code, school, home town, and things that will make it easy for someone to find you!

haha i probably look like a stalker commenting on all these but ANNNNYWAYS.....
ReplyDeleteI think its SUPER important to be safe. personally i think myspace needs to be deleted. It's pointless compared to facebook and SO much more dangerous. It's very rare of ANYONE getting loured to strange people and getting raped, killed, kidnapped etc. on facebook as it it on myspace. plus, what does mypace have to offer? it has hardly any protection (that ive seen) and i dont see many games and fun stuff on there as facebook does. Overall I believe facebook is a better option. What do you think?

ReplyDeleteNo, you don't seem like a stalker at all! ;) I agree though, everytime I think of Myspace, it just seems sooo much more dangerous. Still, either way you want to be careful, but facebook does seem like the safer way to go. I still set all of mine to "friends only" just to be on the 'even safer' side of things. :)
ReplyDeleteWe are accually thinking of setting up a facebook page for Girl Inspiration, do you think that would help us get more views? No? Yes?
Anyways, thanks for commenting!
