In recent years Myspace and other social networks have become increasingly popular. I remember first using Myspace in 10th grade and I thought it was a wonderful way to keep up with friends and social events. Back then it was wonderful and since then I have grown annoyed with Myspace. At first it was great because it didn’t have too many annoying ads. Now its hard to see your information or get to your page because of all the crazy ads and annoying banners that slow down the site. Also it is more prone to spam accounts and people creating fake profiles just to get you to go to there site. I hated having to dump five friend requests daily just for that reason. In addition to all this people began lying about there ages and posting inappropriate photos and information about themselves.
The same thing appears to be happening to other sites as well. Facebook is turning into the new Myspace. At first it required a legitimate college email address and someone over the age of 18. Now it allows anyone to join. Ads and other useless information have begun to grow and eventually it will be just as bad as Myspace.
It’s not that I have anything against Social Networking, it’s just that I don’t like the direction it has gone.
