Social Networking Gone CRAZY!!

AsianAvenue - I was member of the week.

Xanga - Daily blogs on life and a place to brag to everyone what you were doing with your life and who you were hanging out with.

Friendster - The place for friends!

MySpace - A cross between AsianAvenue, Friendster & Xanga. You are allowed to be creative w/ your website, as well as blog about your life and find long lost friends.

Facebook - This is pretty much the best way to keep up with everyone in your current and former life!

Twitter - A way to keep up with everyone at the moment!

It's crazy how all these social networking sites have evolved! Never in my internet life would I imagine that I would go through so many of these sites. To think that we all came from AOL 5.0. The days of finding chat rooms and just "socializing" with people from your area! Now I can't believe I have all this access in the palm of my hand which is also my PHONE!!

I came from the days of having to check my Juno e-mail by dialing up into the system and I would get in trouble for tying up the line for 10 minutes. Now this house has 4 laptops (3 of them macs ;-) ) and 1 desktop PC with cable modem and a router to make sure everyone is always connected!

Now I'm starting to feel like I don't even need a laptop because I have everything on my iPhone: internet access, maps, facebook, myspace & twitter! What the heck???

I think I need to get a life. HA!
