Are Myspace and Facebook a Danger?

You're passion and "Bring-it-home" personality are strong in your article. However, I feel like I'm being screamed at by a five-year old. Girl. Because I didn't buy lemonade. Read some more (of your favorites [american spelling]), look at grammar and sentence structure. Serious, it will make people who matter pay more attention,.

Who says we can't keep our kids off of websites like this? Further more there is no one twisting anyone's arm to give out more info than would be safe. It is up to us to teach our children, block websites we do not want them at, and make sure they aren't using a computer outside of parental view...That means no computers in the bedroom, instead have a family populated area for the family to use the computer and study.
A side note or two here.
Lose the colloquial way of expression...say things like :"She was killed by someone she met on the Facebook website" Not "She was killed off Facebook."
Also sites like you are writing about are NOT programs. A program is an application usually installed on a computer and can run independently from the internet. These are websites you are writing about.

I think the author is mis-informed to some extent. I went in to my Facebook and had a look. I went to my friend list and selected one friend at random. Then I selected one of this friend's friends, also at random. I CANNOT see any of this person's personal info - address, phone, email.

On Facebook you can not put ur info on it, some are not neccirery, such as phone number,address,school. Facebook allows you to show info to certain people such as friends,friends of friends and everyone. YOu can also make ur self unsearchable, as in only friends can search u. i think facebook is safe as long as u hav everything on "only friends", otherwise u might be at risk

Myspace is awsome
Deal with it

I agree Courtney! like omg its totally fetch!! :)

myspace rocks my world from the inside out

dear mr nicholson
your article is poorly written and it does not only lack structure, but meaningful arguments as well. facebook and myspace and the likes do not only imply a huge waste of time, they are dangerous in many other ways - i definitely concur on this. but what you mention here is the sad occurrence of some gullible teenage girl meeting up with the wrong guy - someone she met on facebook, and someone she might have run into on any online dating platform, and chat room etc. facebook is not a dating site though it might be used as such. facebook\'s dagers are somewhat different - the applications scan all your data, such as birthday and address, your consumer profile becomes more and more accurate as you keep entering your preferences, and the wrong pple might acceed your data or - worse - create a fake facebook profile using your identity. fake profiles are sort of booming, and as much it might sound fun at first, it actually isn\'t at all, as a woman i know might argue, whose fake profile listed her as a prostitute, including her cell phone number and address and pictures..
another nice-ish story is the one of a guy took a day off from work and ws then asked to provide the medical certificate because his boss had spotted him on facebook with a \'status\' indicating \"i am not going to work today. heck, no! staying innnnnnnnn!\" sure, it\'s all about the privacy settings of your account, but even so!
and isn\'t it spooky that even after you delete your account, facebook keeps a copy of it! and what about all those pics, the embarrassing ones that you only \'share\' with your facebook friends. even when deleted, they stay with facebook, that also keeps a copy of all former versions of your profile
and what about the ludicrous scams they call \'causes\', like \'feed a child with just a click\'! or \'water my fairy garden and save the rain forest\'. harmless, you might say, but still: you waste your time AND you give facebook\'s parters even more chances to bombard you with ads.
