Thing #18

http://www.myspace.com/teacher73

I have had a myspace account before but chose to delete it when I got my teaching job. I think that both sites are ok for social networking but do think that there can be problems because of different professions. I am more partial to myspace, and I think that this is mostly because I have had a myspace account before. Although I do know many people that have a facebook account.
I did decided to delete my myspace account when I got my teaching job because I personally felt that because I could not control what others put on my account as far as comments and such that I did not think that it was the best thing to have as a teacher. I think that being teachers there are other social networks that can be used that are much more appropriate. I did set up another myspace account only because it was for an assignement. I was able to find many teachers that I teach with and just as I suspected and was concerned about, I did not feel that their sites were appropriate.
I understand why people like social networking but I think there are so many that are not appropriate and people have to be careful.
