Check Out Social Networking Sites

Facebook is the only social networking site that I'm currently active in. Although the layout for facebook is constantly changing, it's still very user friendly. All the buttons are at a clickable distance on your computer screen. The tabs on your profile page is a good touch so that everything is organize i.e. wall, info, photos. Another great feature is being able to comment on anything, from photos to your friends relationship status. One of the area that facebook differs from myspace and friendster is that these sites allows you to fully customize your page via adding music on your page and change your background. You can also navigate through tabs on these pages as well. From the looks of it, it seems that all three sites are pretty similar. I still prefer facebook because it just looks more organize; everyone's pages look identical, layout-wise and color-wise, there isn't any flashy colors or music (some can be extremely annoying). Sometimes simple is better.

Linkedin is similar to facebook, but it's more professional, thus showing that facebook has a professional aspect to it. Linkedin is basically your resume uploaded onto a networking site. It shows past experiences, education, interest, etc. And the great part is that it can actually help you get a job without even applying!
