So I've been on Facebook now for about 2 years and had always heard about this other mysterious site called MySpace which, my teenage son convinced me, was only for cool teenagers (like himself...) and definitely for uncool parents like me. In addition it supposedly far more complicated than Facebook and probably a bit above digital immigrants like the Baby Boomer/Gen X'er like me.
Well thanks to the Week 6 tasks I am now not only signed up on MySpace - only to find it quite simple to navigate around - but have also discovered LinkedIn - more of a professionally oriented social networking site. It might be a good way to connect with Deputy Principals/ other Execs in schools elsewhere. The potential of these sites is exciting in allowing people to connect when previously this would have been virtually impossible.
