Social Networking Sites: What do you use?
« on: July 15, 2008, 01:47:56 PM »
What "social networking" sites do you use?  What do you check frequently?

Brilliant Gameologists has a MySpace account: http://www.myspace.com/brilliantgameologists
Twitter: https://twitter.com/bg_meg
Meg's AIM Account: brillgameg

And I'm signing up for more but want to know what may be checked before I put the effort in. 

So... what do you use?
All of my updates are on twitter!

I don't use any, just IMs and forums (and a blog). I don't really like the social networking sites much.

Facebook.  And before you people even try, there are very few people here I'd add.
Anyway, this cake is great!  It's so delicious and moist.

None of the above.  MySpace is evil.

Hey, there's probably few enough who'd want you to :P

Kind of hoped you'd be one of the sane people around here, but no.

I do not use any. Someone recently convinced me to get AIM and ICQ accounts, though...

Tier 4: An expert marksman.
Tier 3: An expert marksman, cartographer and chef who can tie strong knots and is trained in hostage negotiation or a marksman so good he can shoot down every bullet fired by a minigun while armed with a rusted single-shot pistol that veers to the left.
Tier 2: Someone with teleportation, mind control, time manipulation, intangibility, the ability to turn into an exact duplicate of anything, or the ability to see into the future with perfect accuracy.

You seem to have a thing for disliking retards. No man can be completely out of his mind in that case.

Facebook  :D

People usually think that I've lost my mind. I haven't lost it, I know exactly where it is: the gutter.

My body is a temple. That is why I make chocolate sacrifices in it every day.

I use myspace, tho i dont get many friend request..its a very disturbing and offensive space. lol i use it as a space for me to totally vent, i mean thats what its for right? so it's more or less a clear image of my real personality.

I get to be the first to owning up to having a LiveJournal, huh? I have one of those, which I check (and use) every day. Okay, maybe I don't post daily, but whatever. And I have several more for non-personal reasons.

I also have a MySpace, primarily because certain friends of mine started there (and my sister only has a MySpace, no LJ.)

Why do some of you people dislike these sites so much? Just because there's about a billion dumb-as-heck teens and other stupid internet people on them? They can be both useful and entertaining... And gods know you don't HAVE to put stuff about your actual life if you don't want to. (One of my LJ accounts is for a character of mine, for example.)

First one to admit. I started my LJ some three years ago, but abandoned it a bit before I went to the army.
