December monthly poll

[Computer Hope Admin]

For the month of December we thought it would be interesting to see how many social networking sites you're on. With the increased popularity and available choices out there it's not uncommon for users on the Internet to have a profile setup on multiple social networking sites such as Blogger, LinkedIn, MSN Groups, MySpace, StumbleUpon, Yahoo Groups, YouTube, etc.  Feel free to comment about what social network sites you're on or not on, what you like about them or don't like about them, and/or post your social networking profile links.

I am a member of only one social site: Orkut.
It is the most popular one in our college.

The only site I am a member of is YouTube.  I don't really participate in anything though.  I've uploaded a few videos, but that's.  I mostly use my account to watch and create playlists of my favorite videos.  I do have a MySpace account,  but I never really use it and haven't logged-in in months.

More than five.
MySpace and other such social network sites, and 6 forums.

Excluding forums ----- zero.

[reaper_tbs]

I'm guessing the option "zero" should have been included?

I selected 3, and now I must defend myself:

Okay, I have a myspace ACCOUNT, but do not have a myspace. My brother uses Myspace to post his pictures and videos, hes in France at the moment... so calling him is a little bit difficult.

I use Blogger (through my Google account) but not often at all, specifically since I started my own blogsite.

I now use my own blog system, and site. Actually, its a computer in my basement... sitting, waiting for incoming Port 80 requests from my friends... This is, if it works right (Linux is proving itself evil at the moment), what I will use as a primary social network type site. (Of course, I dont feel like being tracked down... so I wont publicly share the address until I am sure the server is secured.)

Umm.... Isn't a forum a type of social networking? I'm not sure how it's not.
Or am I missing the definition?

[Calum]

I use one - Myspace.
But, I not use it as a social networking site, I hate the thing.
I use it solely to keep in touch with some friends who refuse to get instant messaging.

I guess it kind of is, isnt it?

Huh, never thought of it that way. But then again, I counted other forums...

[michaewlewis]

well, if it is considered a social networking site, then the first ten people, who said they aren't a member of any social network, or only one, may need to change their votes..... Or maybe I need to change my vote?

For me, I'm a member of Computer Hope, Facebook, MySpace, Linux Questions, PHP Builder, and MSN Messenger. Plus the occasional forum, irc, or messenger I subscribe to so I can ask specific questions or communicate with a friend.
