I think they are the best way to keep in touch with family, friends, colleagues and <span class=\"blsp-spelling-corrected\" id=\"SPELLING_ERROR_0\">acquaintances<\/span>. Along the way you can also meet new people and develop your own online network. I first joined a network in <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\" id=\"SPELLING_ERROR_1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendster.com\">Friendster<\/a><\/span>.com. It was pretty cool. Then I created my own <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\" id=\"SPELLING_ERROR_2\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\">Myspace<\/a><\/span> page. <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\" id=\"SPELLING_ERROR_3\">Myspace<\/span> has become an <span class=\"blsp-spelling-corrected\" id=\"SPELLING_ERROR_4\">Internet<\/span> and social phenomenon. Most recently I set up a <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\" id=\"SPELLING_ERROR_5\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\">Facebook<\/a><\/span> page. Of the three, I like <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\" id=\"SPELLING_ERROR_6\">Facebook<\/span> most and have found myself using it a lot. <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\" id=\"SPELLING_ERROR_7\">Myspace<\/span> is still cool. I probably will update that site again soon. I think <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\" id=\"SPELLING_ERROR_8\">Facebook<\/span> is easy, user friendly, creative, innovative, and the program interface works extremely well. It is a great way to interconnect all parts of my life and interests. It&#8217;s also a great way to promote communication in general, my fraternity, and this personal blog. I think I&#8217;ll start asking people in my life that are not part of an online network to consider joining one. I&#8217;m having fun, reconnecting with past pals and keeping better touch of current contacts, family, friends, and fraternity.<\/p>\n<iframe src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fphilvelez.com%2Fblog%2F%3Fp%3D27&amp;layout=standard&amp;&amp;width=450&amp;action=like&amp;font=arial&amp;colorscheme=dark\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowTransparency=\"true\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px;height:20px;margin-top:5px;\"><\/iframe>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These online social networking sites are incredible.
