As the report says, “MySpace has most of the kids who are socially ostracized at school because they are geeks, freaks, or queers.” Hectic.

Many others. So many, in fact, that boyd was taken off guard by the mass of reactions, which were provided by both the mainstream press (1, 2, 3, 4 - many more if you search) and of course by countless bloggers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, …. the list is endless). So instead of adding my nitpicking to what has already been written – much of which is strongly decontextualized and hyperbolic – I want to look at the dynamics of the situation instead.

Kinda makes sense with facebook starting out in ivy league schools. Although I am only 23, I make it a point to always ask younger friends and family in college, high school how they use the net, from are they using RSS feeds, and how. To what are their favorite sites, where do they spend their time online, and how they like to communicate to their friends. Thats the best way I have been able to keep a pulse on the new, fresh, hot sites and up and coming sites. Thats some great info on the difference from myspace users to facebook users.
