...when you go on to MySpace.com in the top right hand corner, you will see a 'Sign Up' button which you can click and then fill in a bit of basic information about yourself such as your name, gender, e-mail, date of birth, and where you live - a similar sort of set up as when you're joining any sort of internet forum really, a quick and simple registration procedure.

Advantages: Good social networking site Disadvantages: Not my cup of tea
...most of my friends have myspace.com so one day I thought why not might as well get as well as the other social networking websites I'm on. I've had myspace.com for a while now however I do prefer bebo.com because it's so much easier to use then myspace.com, but this could just because I discovered bebo.com before I discovered myspace.com. Anyway, have a read and see how you feel about myspace.com afterwards.

Advantages: A Must For The Hip & Trendy; A Modern Way To Network Disadvantages: Unreliable; Slow; Full of people who might not be who they say they are
Let's make it perfectly clear right from the start - I *hate* Myspace. I hate it in the way I hated text messaging when that first started and I hate it in the way I hated blogging when that first became a craze. I hate it a bit like the fact that I can't afford a new car and I hate it in the same way I hate the fact that I'm getting old.
In other words: there's nothing I can do about it, so I might as well accept it. When SMS messaging became ...

Advantages: Fun, easy to use, and everyone's on it! Has unlimited potential Disadvantages: Addictive. Some wierdos, and some real eyesores.
Ok, so you're sat on MSN Messenger chatting when someone says "Ah, have you seen www.insertrandomwebsitehere.com yet? It's well good lol". What do you do? You go check it out, only to find that everyone you know and love has been a part of it for more than a year. Does this sound familiar to you? It does to me.
This is exactly how I was introduced to MySpace. Someone just asked (without even asking if I knew about it) what my username was. After ...

There aren't many people around anymore that haven't heard the words 'My' and 'Space' uttered or at least, written down, in recent newspaper articles or supplementry magazines.
Myspace is an internet phenomenon, boasting millions of members and thousands more joining everyday.
I myself, am hooked. It fulfils so many functions that you could waste so much of your time each day spending time on it.
First of all, the basics. When you first sign ...

Advantages: way to meet new and different people, good for music Disadvantages: strange people who use it for wrong reasons
A couple of years back or maybe a year back I was introduced to the website. I had been on some message board and everyone was giving the link's to their myspace page so I thought I would have a look and see what the big deal was about the website. I found out that basically it was a website that you could have your own page on. It is all about you, could be your business or anything and you decorate it make it symbolize you and that pretty much sums ...

Advantages: In principal, a good way to meet like minded people and advertise your creative genius Disadvantages: As with all things internet, it's become a hive for insecure, horny teenagers and porn merchants
We've had the internet in it's current, easy(ish) to access form for about 10 years now I suppose. What started out as a means of transferring data sets between laboratories, has grown into the single biggest communicative behemoth since the birth of language. I remember my first foray onto the old msn chatrooms back in 1999, and being amazed that I could talk, real time, to people on the other side of the world. I had this one friend who could actually ...

Advantages: Easy way to keep in touch with friends, look for new bands, & loads more! Disadvantages: Sometimes the sight will crash and certain features will be enabled.
Myspace, perhaps the most addictive thing since nicotine was discovered. Seriously, I know that there are a lot of Myspace bashers out there who think that it is nothing more than an idea for the fat cats to make a heap of money through the promotion of films and music artists, but guys, really… it’s a great idea! Now I know that you have instant messengers like AOL and MSN to use if you want to stay in touch with your friends, but these are pretty ...

MySpace is a social networking site designed for you to keep in contact with old friends and meet new ones. It is also widely used by up and coming bands who used MySpace for advertising themselves - they often do this by hand-picking people they feel would like their music (by looking at ...

Advantages: Make new friends and have better contact with current friends. Disadvantages: Difficult to start out with HTML coding
MySpace is in effect your own private webspace (or page) on which you can write information about yourself, include pictures, backgrounds, music and video clips.
Most people use MySpace to keep in contact with current friends and make new ones. It is a lot easier (and more fun) to use MySpace than regular email. And a lot more simple than getting a webhost to create a webpage!
Here are a few hints and tips to help you along.....

Advantages: You are getting to share so much with your friends Disadvantages: A matter of preference if you like social networking
Those of you that pay any attention to the current online social networking trend may know who originally started the craze, and that is down to a little known American who created what is now the most successful of these blogging websites - MySpace. Looking at the names of all these websites that try and bring people together, it is interesting to see which ones have caught on. MySpace, as a name, sounds very clever to me as it is all about having ...

Myspace is a wonderful internet friends site. It is easy to use and absolutely free. I'll just get on with the review, shall I?
OVERALL LOOK
Myspace's pages and profiles are generated as html and CSS, and, though there is a default look, you'll rarely find a profile page that is default. This is because of the fact that most users have easy access to dozens of sites offering layout codes, so that you can fully customise your page (with only ...
