Week 8 - Social Networking Sites

I think the librarians could use Facebook as a way to connect with faculty and students in relation to class information and projects. I prefer Facebook over MySpace. It seems MySpace is more for teens and young adults to use as a meeting place. I usually look at it to check out my daughters site. I read that some employers and colleges access Facebook and MySpace to check on applicants. This could be a problem if someone is careless about what they put out there in cyberspace although their sites could be made private.
