Week 5 Get Social - Myspace and Facebook

Well.. had a look at Myspace and some of the libraries that are using it. I think that this is good for the younger person and more suited to public libraries and the like, being informed of current events, what is available, what is happening etc. I don't think it would really be suitable for my library. Don't know of any medical libraries that have myspace!! does anyone know of one? I tried to have a look at Youthspace but my computer frooze and tried again and it it did all sort of crazy things, not much luck so gave up.
Secondly, opened up a Myspace account...had a lot of trouble as my mouse died on me so I was becoming very frustrated trying to do my best when it was winding down. Now that I am back at work I have checked to see if it went OK and it seems fine, I have added a few "friends" (fellow participants) and looking forward to adding more "stuff" and doing a bit more exploring of the possibilities. I was a bit nervous about putting in personal information about myself so really need to have another look at that... Anyway I'm on my own at work to-day so I expecting to be flat out so I had better get to it...
