I originally didn’t see the need for Facebook, but I really enjoy finding out non-work related things about people, like their favourite tv shows. Who knew there were so many doctor who and stargate fans out there? I’ve also been able to reconnect with some friends from highschool that I haven’t talked to in years. It’s neat being able to check up on people.
I also looked into MySpace. My impression of this network is that is it very entertainment focussed (music and tv/movie) and unless you’re involved in those areas, why bother becoming involved? It also seemed quite commercial - many of the sites I looked into looked professionally made.
