My Space

Has anyone heard of a site called My Space being a site that will seek out private information from young people or putting a virus on your computer. It seems to me that I have heard something unfavorable about it but can’t recall what it said.

Nothing wrong with MySpace if used properly.
The main site:
http://www.myspace.com

My own Myspace
http://www.myspace.com/bob3160

Can you explain what you mean by “used properly.” I ask this because my grandkids, early teens, use it and I try to be sure they are not getting on to things or giving out information that might be used by hackers.

It’s not something I’d recommend for small children.


Nor is it for immature Teens (nor immature adults) who do not understand about posting information that is too personal.


Hey tough neighborhood when you were immature teen Bob. Tougher than MySpace, Facebook, Bebo…Or no?

btw I found another interesting Facebook article about adults to regret consequences of their immature actions.
Might as well post here as well for bexar656

Wow. That artical is scary. I’ve got to get these kids off it and find out what they have posted. Thanks.
