Social networks are always helpful no matter where you are. Whether it is in business or it is used socially. It does in fact help you re connect with lost friends or anything of that sort. All these websites can be used in today's world socially and in a business and entertaining matter.
Myspace however has turened more into a site where musicians try to get there music out there. It is still that network where you can sometimes socially interact with people but nowadays it is more of a business website. Musicians all over the world are posting their own creations of myspace music and are making a business. I guess you can say that they are making a business socially. Space is not generally used for news.
Facebook however, is more of a social networking website. It helps you re-connect with old friends. You can also talk to other people about what is going on in the world. Like twitter, it can allow you to discuss topics and comment back and forth getting other peoples opinions.
I guess you can say entertainment wise,everyone comments about the latest 'gossip' celebrities giving something for everyone to talk about. It gives people who work in entertainment a chance to see how everyday people are reacting to what a celebrity is doing.

Powerpoint
Throughout the past two days I have learned new things about PowerPoint. For example I learned different ways of applying a picture as the background, how to add individual animation and how to transform individual slides.I also got the reminder to not write paragraphs explaining the presentations, instead use bullet points and sub-bullets. I also learned how to do timing on when words will appear on the screen.
Just An Idea or Two
What should my power point be about
-any recent case that happened
-any American rights
-any vacation spot ( go in depth about it)

Tweets around the World
There is a growing epidemic that allows you to “tweet” and let your friends know what is going on. Whether you want to tell your friends that you are about to eat an ice cream sundae or to get your employees opinion of the latest presentation, Twitter can benefit those anywhere. Unlike Facebook or MySpace, Twitter is a site to voice your opinion so that others can see. Although many may argue this saying that Twitter takes up time and it can take away from face to face contact, like stated before it is a way to express your thoughts.
Business’s may find this site very useful because they can post an open question about something and allow there employees to “tweet” about it and get there opinions on the topic. It also can allow you to follow interesting people. For instance whoever you are following may have great ideas about something new that can work for you. The negative part about it is that it may take up too much work time.
Socially Twitter can be very helpful, if you know how to use it, after all posting pictures of you and your friends on a Friday night “chilling out.” This social network enables those who want to let people know what’s up and what they are currently, to voice there opinions in a way that you cant in person. You can attach helpful links that can benefit those who follow your page. I believe the only disadvantage of twitter is the fact that it can take up too much time and some may loose the ability to hold a conversation.
In an entertaining way Twitter can make those who sit at home laugh up a storm at the ridiculous things that people post. Well besides that many of people in entertainment to let their fans know what is up in their day to day life.
News broadcasters can use the Twitter website to inform viewers on the latest news stories. If a story is not important enough to interrupt normal television programming, broadcasters can tweet about it to get their information across. Its helps us Americans know what is going on around the world.
Twitter is a site that is beneficial to those who know how to use it properly. If you know how to tweet and what to tweet about, twitter can help you in the long run.

Banning Formspring?
Over the past few months many users (mostly teens) have been bullied over the internet.I believe that websites such as formspring should not be allowed. You should not be able to trash talk somebody online, let alone not letting them know who you are.
