Thing 12

Review the widget you selected. Are you getting comfortable with embedding code? Do you belong to other online communities? Are relationships formed online as meaningful as face-to-face relationships? Why do you think MySpace and other social networking sites are so popular with kids today?

I like my little clock of science. I am comfortable? Right now, I am. In a week? We'll have to see.

Not a member of any other online community, yet.

Relationships can't be as meaningful. Like it said in the YouTube video with the Anthropologist, it could all be fake.

I don't do MySpace, but my daughter did get on Facebook and was talking to a boy. So, I created my own account, located a bunch of former students and an old Army buddy of mine. It's great! We can 'talk" for free, see what's going on in everybody's lives, put in photos (and now videos). I don't accept current students, but it is lots of fun to play Scrabble with my buddy in Alabama.
