Why are social networking sites so popular and what value would you expect to get from joining one?
Social Bookmarking site is popular way to store , share and search links on the internet. It is a popular term for search engine optimization and it is an alternative way to boost traffic for the site.Other than web page bookmarks, services specialized to a specific subject or format - feeds, books, videos, music, shopping items, map locations, wineries, etc. - can be found. Social bookmarking is also part of social news sites like Reddit.

How do social networking sites work? I am looking for the algo that they use to connect ppl - like LinkedIn?

Well, they work by you setting-up a website, then advertising the site to other friends. They, in turn, advertise their sites and people find you. It's really easy and fun.


How does social networking sites like bebo and my space make money(besides advertising)?

Do they make any profits and how

How does social networking sites like bebo and my space make money(besides advertising)?
Social networking sites basically operate two revenue streams: contextual/banner advertising and subscriptions for premium services.





Cyworld.com allows users to create profiles for free, but the user has to pay if they want to customize it.





But advertising remains big. Myspace, for instance, according to reports earn about $25 million a month and growing every month - almost 30 per cent every quarter http://www.journalism.co.uk/2/articles/5...
Reply:Well, some offer products, such as facebook. But the majority of the income is based on advertising.


How do social networking websites like orkut or myspace make money when no ad. is posted on them?

they do have ads


Is digital social networking safe?

I think that, depending on how you go about it, it can be safer than "regular" networking.





... If you count going to bars as "networking" -- then meeting someone offline at a coffee shop (when you're both sober and can actually have a conversation) can be much safer and productive.





I think digital social networking is safe as long as you never tell someone your home address, always meet in public places, have an "early exit strategy", go with your gut, and use common safety sense (which hopefully you'd use anyway, even meeting people the more conventional routes!).

Is digital social networking safe?
It's about as safe as regular networking -- just don't link to people you don't really know.

Why are social-networking sites like msypace, hi5 and livejournal such a hit?

Way back people hung around at the same places. They they got pagers and could arrange to talk or meet up. Then they got email, and could stay in touch. Cell phones became popular, letting people talk more and text and all that. But now you can hook up (albeit only virtually) with approximately 1 zillion people, filter out those who aren't into what you find interesting, while expressing who you are in the process. Why did these services take off? What took them so long? Which is the best? Can we live without them?

Why are social-networking sites like msypace, hi5 and livejournal such a hit?
In today's world most people in a community are socially disconnected from each other. The web is helping people to become connected again--and you have the whole world as your community. It would be very difficult to go back, because our culture has changed so drastically since the seventies. Family life isn't what it once was, and lonely people have a difficult time trusting people in their own neighborhoods.

Anybody boycotting "social networking websites"??

Facebook LiveJournal and of course the dreaded MYSPACE etc. I think they are pointless and a waste of time. Anyone else agree??

Anybody boycotting "social networking websites"??
Couldn't you say this is a "social networking website"? Everyone here has an assumed name, we hide behind our avatars, and seek others for guidance or to share our insight.





And I'm not really boycotting, I just prefer not to use any of those sites. I go out and meet people, I talk to my friends face to face.

Why are social networking sites timing out?

I'm having issues with Cafe Mom and Stumble Upon timing out when sending messages or uploading photos. It looks like they are both the same type of interface. I have two home computers and these sites time out on both these sites. Is it a possible security setting? Both of these sites worked for me initially for a day and then started timing out on me.

What social networking site do you use?

And why?

What social networking site do you use?
Myspace - because I've been a member of it for ages and I know my way around it well. Alot of my favorite bands are also on it.





Bebo - because pretty much everyone at my school etc has/uses it so its just generally good for that sort of bussiness.





Facebook - slightly different but again alot of people use it, including older people unlike the other 2.





I would say these are the main 3. Myspace was the biggest but now I think Facebook is the biggest and bebo is biggest with kids.

Reply:I enjoy iddy-nibbles and biddy-bites. My cuisine-du-preference would be a sumptuous snack platter any day over an opulent, several course meal. Maybe that’s why I have grown so fond of my Twitter; it feeds my inner-snackdom. Sure, I indulge in the big blogs and rich articles featured all over the web but those take time and space both of which seem to be hard to find these days. In 140 characters or less, I can share my latest and greatest happenings and see what my communities of peeps are twittering about. It’s my virtual snack platter for the news, discourse, events and discussions that I am interested in following.

Does social networking have a long term future or is it just a a short term trend?

Yes, I believe so. Social networking sites lower the barriers to effective communication in the same way that the telephone once did, and email did too.





Some peers seem to be answering this question with the assumption that 'social networking' must mean meeting new people online. I would define it more broadly, as a means of mass-communicating with a group of acquaintances. Examples of this are MySpace, Facebook, etc.

Does social networking have a long term future or is it just a a short term trend?
its been happening for a long time, so its not new and more than likely to continue for a long time
Reply:I think it has a long term future because so many people feel isolated, plus its an easy and safe way to 'meet' people with similar interests.


I know people who have gone on to meet up in real life, and a mate of mine met her husband online (not in a chat room!)


Do Social Networking Sites (MySpace, Facebook) Ruin Real Relationships?

Hi people,





The reason i ask this question is simple, i was going out with a girl for about 2 years. I joined Facebbok and i started to add friends on my profile. Girls used to message me and write comments to me, flirty type comments.





Although i didnt really care about the comments my ex did, and we ended up breaking up.





Im just wondering, do you think these sites are healthy?

Do Social Networking Sites (MySpace, Facebook) Ruin Real Relationships?
wow, thats crazy... i think it all depends on where your relationship is. I mean, i cant see myself breaking up with someone just because of some comments on MYSPACE. Now if you are sending those flirty messages back, well that maybe a problem. Generally, though, I mean people sometimes take things and run with it. On either side. A man (or woman) could get a MYSPACE account and be cheating like the one guy said or it could be used as a way to make friends and left at that. People have to know their boundries. If you dont, then thats where the problems come in. If I had a bf, then some of the comments I WRITE wouldnt be considered descent for a woman who is in a relationship. But you cant help who writes you what. Its only natural for a person to become jealous, but to break up, I dont know.





Maybe if she asked you not to, and you did anyway, maybe then.
Reply:Wow! I can't even begin to tell you how many people I know (including myself) that have been in an identical situation as yours. In my opinion, yes and no. It depends on your girlfriend. Some girls are more understanding and less "jealous-types" than others and the same guys for guys. However, I think your girlfriend should maybe do a little re-evaluating of this situation and you should tak to her about it. I agree that it is nothing serious. People I haven't even seen in person in 3 years will leave flirty comments on my wall.
Reply:i think they are stupid and really shouldnt be taken seriously but obviously they do ruin some relationships (if thats all it took to ruin the relationship i guess it wasnt such a trustworthy relationship in the first place)
Reply:I found out on myspace that my wife was cheating on me, I am currently waiting on my divorce to finalize...cheating is the one thing I will not tolerate.
Reply:I think the internet in general ruins real relationships.





My bf seen that the majority of my friends on bebo are men, it took a while to convince him these are all gay or old school friends (which they are)





I also found awful things on the internet on match.com and that awful AWFUL AWWWWWWFUL site adultfriendfinder in regards to my bf's past and other people I knew.





It is an awful thing when it comes to relationships, so much so, I have banned the computer being fixed in our house.


Should social networking sites e.g. myspace, facebook be banned in the workplace?

Which Social Networking software is currently most popular and least complicated to maneuver?

Personally, I think www.myspace.com is the most popular. Whether is simple or not, it is a matter of getting used to. Another site, is www.ourspacs.com, is a much smaller site. I like this site ttoo, because it is not as big or complcated like myspace, but myspace is still my favorite.

Are social networking sites such as Myspace and Facebook denigrating the value of human fellowship?

I believe they are. I believe that this is not the way our Heavenly Father wishes for us to have fellowship with one another. When people engage with each other in such a way, the true value of interaction is lost. How must we go about reinstating our older, more Godly, values?

Are social networking sites such as Myspace and Facebook denigrating the value of human fellowship?

Favourite Social Networking Site?

So most of us have profiles on these, i.e.: Facebook; Myspace; Bebo; etc. So what's your favourite(s)?


And which one do you least like?





I don't like 'Hi5'; because I find it confusing and annoying, and 'Bebo' irritates me. %26gt;_%26lt;

Favourite Social Networking Site?
Facebook for sure. Myspace is my least favorite for it's lack of organization and terrible design. Facebook is clean, minimal, and has a lot of security options so only people you want can view your profile. But I recommend asking your friends what they use, and adopt that because it's probably what most of your friends are using. :)

Are social networking sites against our moral values?

in certain sites i get friendhip requests from strangers(ofcouse frm the opp gender).my parents have warned me frm accepting them..


my friends do accept them...


i think my parents are right...but i'm confused sometimes...

Are social networking sites against our moral values?
It's not really anything to do with morals, it's to do with being selective or non selective with the type of people you associate as friends. Some people are quite happy to talk to anyone, which is fine, so long as they are carefull, but If you're like me, you don't want to talk to absolute strangers who mean nothing to you. Answers is different because you feel you are doing something constructive and learning something. It's each to their own I guess, and it does give allot of people a chance to get to know new people who might not otherwise have the chance to.
Reply:There is no way you can verify if the requests for friendship are from the opposite gender. Remember what happened to Adnan Patrawala and his profile on Orkut he got killed for ransom by "friends" he met on this social networking site.





It may be better for you to look for friends where you live instead of on the internet, as you cant verify the information given on the internet by people you cant see. So listen to the advice given by your parents and be a good boy and stay out of trouble.

Are social networking sites just a fad?

Are they just a fad like the Rubik's Cube, Pokemon and Sudoku?





Or have websites like Myspace and Facebook become an integral part of the internet that will be around for as long as the www itself?

Are social networking sites just a fad?
Honestly, this question can have many answers. The best answers you will get with this will be different people's opinions.





My opinion is that they are a bit of both. They are a fad with SOME people, but will always have someone who likes and pays attention to them. Personally, I have a MySpace and would have much difficulty parting with it. It's very useful for many things, not just chatting with friends and such. It's a great way to keep track of family and business. I can see most of these sites staying around for a very long time due to this.
Reply:well that surely depends on ur perception...for some its just a fad and for others, its an integral part of them...

Sorry, I really don't have an answer for you. I only wanted to comment because of the nasty comment above.





Does this "person" understand that people use AVATARS for a multitude of reasons?





Does he understand that even if someone used a Brad Pitt picture as an avatar, they might not really look anything like Brad Pitt? and the same applies to the above...





Even if the Questioner above does indeed look like the picture he used (I doubt it, and it does not matter), BUT, does this give you the right to be NASTY.

Which ones have a lot of features? Any as good as MySpace?

What social networking sites do you like?
I think people are bored with what a Social Networking website has to offer.People get caught up to much in what they want to appear to be than what and/or who they really are.I think "Tweaking/Pimping" a profile is the same as who wears the best clothes in "HIGH SCHOOL" to become popular.Its stupid to me. You can find Social networking sites on Mashable.com


They have lots to choose from. There is website on Mashable thats called Mygreet.com which just launched,I believe its based on a more Mature audience,not much to the Teen crowd.


but theres always Friendster,ProfileHeaven what have you.Hell I dont know myself!Theres so many!

Musicians Social Networking Site?

First of all, does anyone know of a ssite like the one in the post below, which is one i sent to a few web design forums and stuff looking for anyone to help me.





Hi





I was on myspace one day a while ago and i was thinking about teh music side of it. I was wondering if there was anytihng like this, but just for bands and other musicians to upload there songs and for other people to rate them and find other great bands, sort of like the myspace music part of the site but people can browse through particular genres and find similar bands etc..





So, i searched google and, although, i admit, it wasn't a very big search, i didn't find anything. So, i decided i wanted to make one (yes, a bit ambitious, but hey that's me !:) )





So the bottom line, basically, is if anyone would like to help, in any way, be it a major part, or just a bit of code. Also, if anyone does know of a site like this, then could you tell me as i would love to look at it and i twould stop me wanting to do this.

Musicians Social Networking Site?
Myspace. :)





Really, Myspace was originally populated with mainly bands. Other people joined and it has become what it is today.

Social Networking apps for the iphone/ipod touch?

Do you think the people behind sites such as facebook, Myspace and windows live messenger will be using the sdk to build apps for the iphone/itouch?





If so, hopefully they will offer them for free like they are online.

Social Networking apps for the iphone/ipod touch?
Yes the will, and they'll be made available via the new App Store planned for iTunes.





The social networking tools will be provided free. It's in there interest to offer these to their users at no cost.

Social Networking Websites???

I already have Bebo, but I'm not sure whether to get MySpace as well.





Should I get MySpace or stick with my Bebo?

Social Networking Websites???
In my opinion MySpace is better. But it depends what you're in to, and how much you know about the internet. I think MySpace is more free and less the same, Bebo you can make skins and all the images you use to make them are the same size and every profile looks the same but with different pictures. With MySpace it's just a lot more interesting. %26amp; you can have a song on your profile, and more bands have myspace. there's a lot of nasty people on there, but i've only ever some a cross a few ignorant shiits, just never let myspace take over your life and don't take naked pictures. MySpace beats bebo, hands down, all the way. Bebo is just so safe and normal and secure and stuff. lol.
Reply:Why does it matter? Get MySpace and go with Facebook if you are desperate for "socializing."

Social networking site - Mystudymates.com?

I need advice from Yahoo answers community. I am thinking of launching this site called Mystudymates.com.





I think students, teenagers especially waste don't gain so much from sites like myspace, friendster, bebo etc. I will like your opinion about a site where students can find study mates with the same goals and vision and help one another out. Your thoughts are appreciated.

Social networking site - Mystudymates.com?
I think it's a great idea! And will work to some extent. But you have to remember, even though the intentions are for school, it may turn into another social area. Also, some kids would be afraid to get an account because they would be worried about what their peers thought of them. They might feel nerdy. But I think if you are sure it'll work GO FOR IT!!! :)





~paige
Reply:It's called a Library.





See these kids are on sites like myspace out of choice (or because it's the trendy thing to do)





If they were looking to find study mates, i think their classmates would be the first place to look.





Your site would probably attract the 'cool' jocks and airheads that want a 'nerd' to 'help' them do the homework for them. They'll end up plagiarizing MASSIVELY.





I'm only worried you'll be losing alot of money investing in such a website.





It's a great idea, don't get me wrong. But would it work? I strongly doubt it!

ok ok i had my fun on myspace around 3 years ago, but soon grew out of it, and now i just think there completey sad, ie you just been super poked? I MEAN what the fxxk is that all about,, however im open minded so, if you love um tell me why

Social networking sites, bad? sad? or make you glad?
I'll say it, I think Facebook is utter S**t!





for years, I never touched MySpace, then one day I just gave it ago and it seems to be a handy tool when I need it.


I only have about 70 friends on my list but about 62 of them I ACTUALLY know and still speak to. These are college and close personal friends.


I check it daily, but only to see if I have any messages. Other than uploading a few new photos of me when they're taken or adding a blog occasionally, it doesn't get much use.





I tried Facebook out after a little while due to demand to sign up for work colleagues. At first the idea was novel, but then it RAPIDLY became a pointless chore. I don't want to be invited to be part of a group, I don't want to sign up to a billion different pointless applications that just encourages spamming people and I don't want to know about people's relationships.

Social Networking Sites - Scams and Viruses in Friend Requests?

I recently had a friend who signed up for MatchDoctor. I wanted to view her profile but it required me to create an account, so I created a fake account with no actual info (Not interested in dating, etc). A day later I get a friend request, and my profile has no info whatsoever. The friend request looks like it's from an actual person, but my question is why would somebody send a friend request to someone who has no info on their profile and might not even be a person? Do some of these people just mass 'friend request' others? I'm guessing that by accepting the friend request, I might get a virus or spyware or something like that, or compromise my computer's security in some way. I wanted to verify whether or not this happens on a regular basis and if there's a way to tell whether or not this is an actual person. It also makes me wonder what the motivation is to send a friend request to someone who doesn't have any actual info on their profile. Any answers/advice greatly appreciated.

Social Networking Sites - Scams and Viruses in Friend Requests?
You have also made a fake account here in yahoo answers with no name....got your answer
Reply:I have had that before, But i do believe that you cannot get any virus's or adware or anything from accepting the request, However clicking things on their profile may be where their hidden, My advice is to change your spam settings in your account settings and make it so they have to type out the letters so you dont get automated requests anymore.
Reply:Hi, sometimes, when someone ask you for a friend request, when you have no info on you, it could be either from the administrator or someone who wants to advertise their business. In the later case, usually, once you added that person as your friend, and you check his/her profile, there is usually an affiliate link, for selling a product or services. I joined www.hi5.com, I receive many of this request, some are just people who probably wants to be seen of having many friends and some are business advertisement. Another site www.ourspacs.com, once I joined I got one friend automatically, which is the admin of the site, welcoming me. It won't have any virus.

Social networking question?

i just signed up for a myspace account but not familiar with everything yet. my question is...if im NOT log in into my account while viewing someone else's profile, can the person that i viewed find out that i viewed their profile? does my name show up to their page? or only if im log in? when im log in, i see "Profile Views" on the right hand side and there's a number below it and i noticed that the number increases...but i dont know what that means. if someone is viewing my profile, why cant i see them? does it work like that? you cant see who views your page, just the number of times your page are viewed will show up?

they will know only if they have profiletrackers. some have profile trackers others dont. if u want one click this link http://www.frappr.com/ and click get ur own map to continue.
Reply:yes but you can get your own page tracker.. but i have to warn you those things monitor you and everyone you have come to your page..





and if I find out someone is using one on their page.. I will not go there.. I will not be spied on by some site that has hooked onto my computer with a tracking cookie from your tracker..





it is not a nice thing to do to someone..





myspace has monitors which come around everyday and make sure you are not in violation with the


TOS.. same as 360 , and the spammers are always looking for new places to stick their invitations and messages.. just put your privacy settings to private unless you are online.. and that will stop people from visiting your page.


Social networking sites, and how many profiles is too much?

Basically what are your opinions on the following?


Myspace, Orkut, Facebook, Multiply...

Social networking sites, and how many profiles is too much?
I have a couple because not all of my friends use the same one ... it is completely acceptable to have accounts on more than one of these sites ...
Reply:All information you would not like others to know about your or that can be used against you are often adviced to be be shared on the social networking sites. For example information you would not want strangers to know about you should not be shared... You are to treat everyone on the social network site as strangers atleast until you get to know them and even when you get to know them you have to be cautious with your information because the guy on the other end may not be as honest as you are about there identity.





However, I must add that social site have been know to record great success with some people but nevertheless you don't leave a burning fire on your roof top and go on to bed...





Myspace is a good one but you may have to surf a little on the other sites to decise what you really want and which meets your need.





Good luck
Reply:What someone else would find proper for you might not be what you want; I suggest create a profile on each of the sites and check out the features and the community; your experience will guide you best to find what networking site you belong in.

Social networking site; improve content and traffic?

How would you improve site content and increase new and repeat traffic?

Social networking site; improve content and traffic?
The content displays very little explanation as to which site I have landed on. I mean it shows your name and logo, but what is the site for? It doesn't explain it quick enough and the fonts are VERY small not enough for me to see that it is indeed a social network. Another thing is getting sign ups needs to be focused on more. There is nothing that jumps out and asks me to join or a reason to join, if it's free or not, etc. Simplicity is key to attracting social site fanatics from the front page.


Social networking...You know the deal.?

I am looking for a site that will allow me to find music based on my tastes and match me up with others.Sort of like last.fm but i also want to reccomend some music without having to email a person but rather just leave it in some sort of a reccomendation box in their page (if asked ofcourse).I almost believe i may have to create my own site,cause i can't find one like this.

The art of Social networking or just plain rude?

I'm having casual conversation in a semi public area (no eye contact with others unless they get out of their cubicals) with different levels of management and sales reps. Everytime one co-worker or another will not only invite themselves into the conversation but shut me down to the point I am no longer in it.


Are these people despartly trying to network or are they just plain rude?


(BTW I was holding my own conversationaly so it's not a rescue mission)

The art of Social networking or just plain rude?
They simply lack proper social skills. Don't worry, they only make up about 80% of the population!


So take comfort in the fact that atleast you started an interesting topic of discussion with your coworkers.
Reply:I'm thinking there is a possibility that if it is happening EVERY TIME that the person being rescued is not you, but the person you are chatting with! If the conversations are business related and private, take them out of the semi public areas and into an office... if it's idle chit chat, take it to the break room. If you're standing in the aisle outside people's cubes, you're being disruptive.. get back to work :)

You can even earn from adsense using your website.


Also check websites like w3schools.com .

How would social networking make money without subscription, adsense, the likes? Just plain social networking

Here are some ideas:





Charging for widgets.


Designing templates and selling them from the home page.


Affiliate marketing through companies like Commission Junction.


Requesting donations from the home page.


Selling mailing lists of your users matched with what they are interested in (power of the database).


Using the skills you learned creating your free website as a platform to make other websites (web development business).





I hope that helps.


Are people really more satisfied when they add mass numbers of so-called "friends" on social networking sites?

Myspace, for example. And I'm not talking about just the younger crowd but older folks (30s, 40s) as well, who have 200 or more adds. Are they really that fulfilled in their lives?





Doesn't anybody value quality over quantity anymore? I always believe that less is more. One can deepen the ties when you have a few, lets say 20 or 30 friends, but as the circle of influence increases, the bonds weaken. There's 24 hours in a day and only so much time to dedicate to your relationships. Just wondering if others think that people spread their energy too thin in trying to improve their social life in this manner.

Are people really more satisfied when they add mass numbers of so-called "friends" on social networking sites?
Well I dont think genuine bonds are what any of them are looking for,the massive number and aquiring of a massive number is more of a billboard "hey universe look how valueable and desireable I am" having forty zillion people wanting to be associated with you is a great boost to the ego and reputation - there are many of us whose opinion of ourselves is entirely dependant on others.
Reply:People, it seems, yearn for poularity. Places like MySpace, Facebook, and Friendster let people find this elusive popularity, even though it is completely hollow and pointless.


I'm the type of guy who would rather have a real close relationship with one to three people, than a superficial relationship with ten or twenty.

Reply:you could always learn html coding, and c++ isnt really in that field but might offer something you like. you could also take a corse at your local comunity collage.
Reply:Definitely PHP and MySQL. Very simple and lots of good support.
Reply:If you're asking what you should code such a site in: PHP %26amp; MySQL.





Tried and tested and supported by practically every web host out there.
Reply:ASP.NET is the most powerful server scripting language available. If you aren't familiar with object-oriented programming, though, it may be a bit too complex to learn as a first language.





PHP is another popular choice, and you will find more hosting options.


Can a "B" student in finance make it with a top firm if he has good networking/social skills?

I'm currently in my freshman year of college and I'm wondering if I can get a decent starting job at about 50k with a top firm. A reasonable expectation for me is about a 3.4 to 3.6 GPA. However, I have excellent social skills (rapport building, etc.) and I can get just about anybody I meet into my network. I am also graduating from a top 10 business school.





Would it be possible to work as a financial advisor/analyst/banker for a company like Merrill Lynch? Thanks.

As a fresh grad looking for their first job, its hard to get that 50k job. I'm not saying its impossible, but its really hard, especially if you are just aiming for a B average. Realistically you are looking at 35k-40k. Since you are graduating from a top school, maybe you will be closer to the 40k mark.





Even if you get into a top firm, they not going to pay you that much fresh out of college. Its a two way deal. They get cheap labor out of you, and you get experience out of them. Perhaps after 1-2 years of service, they will promote you (much more pay), or you can take your experience and move on.

teeth grinding

Have you had any bad experiences with social networking sites?

Have you ever been scammed through Facebook? Stalked in 360? Stolen from in Multiply? Verbally molested in Myspace? Or in any other networking sites?





Thanks!

Sites like bebo facebook myspace should be hacked and taken offline

New plans to ban sex offenders using social networking sites?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7328170.st...





Sex offenders are to be banned from using sites like Facebook and Bebo to stop them from contacting children. The plan is to register all their e-mail addresses and pass them on to the sites so that they can block them from joining. While I applaud their efforts, how is this ever going to be policed? How are they going to know that these people aren't giving them one e-mail address and using a different one to log on to the networking sites?

New plans to ban sex offenders using social networking sites?
That's not the way to go about things like this.





I did an internship in a probation office and the sex offenders we dealt with were told by the court that they could not possess a computer. If they had to have one for work or if they had kids who needed one for school, there would be software installed, at the offender's expense, that would track everything the offender did while online, and a community corrections officer would download the information and scan it for violations. It made a bit more work for the officers involved, and the entire family's privacy was taken away, but it was closer to a guarantee than anything else they could do.
Reply:Hi Chipmunk





I saw this story - talking about blocking email addresses from facebook etc.


But we can create an enail address in seconds - so I don't see how it can work.


I think it's just the government trying to appear pro-active and any initiative should be welcomed if it helps protect children from danger
Reply:I have dozens of email addresses - and I can set up a new one in about 30 seconds - there is no point in wasting money on this as it will be impossible to police.





If people have committed a criminal offence, they should be locked up. The whole point of the criminal justice system is that if you break the law, you serve your time and you should be rehabilitated. If these people are still a danger they should be in prision!!!
Reply:absolute waste of time this is.





Makes people feel good that they are doing something. The reality is it will never work.
Reply:It's called an IP address on your computer that registers what you do and where you go on the internet and they can link it to the person they are monitoring.





It will never be policed though so your point is valid and its all a waste.
Reply:its stupid the police cannot trace every computer every second of the day they got no chance in stopping that you can use a computer anyway these days in a Internet cafe a library
Reply:I agree completely. How many of us have several email addresses, how easy is it to create any number of them, under any name. Maybe they should be banned from having Internet connections in their home and using Internet cafes etc. But even that would be terribly difficult to police.
Reply:this is just another stupid idea that has not been thought through





i worry about the mental abilities of the people who run this country





duh
Reply:OMG, you're saying that the govt is proposing a new law that's badly thought through?





I don't believe it.
Reply:it seems to me that helping to keep our kids safe from paedophiles perverts sexual deviants of all types is a really difficult thing to do the trouble is we have a sex register and other laws which are supposed to monitor who these people and how they operate it keeps tags on them to stop them, none of these laws has been the answer but if ANYTHING seems to work then I say go for it.I agree with other writers who say it is unlikely to work but if it saves one child then it is worth it ,maybe the answer is when someone is caught downloading even the most "minor" pornographic material concerning children or young people they should be branded on the forehead (like the branding used on cows) but it should be done on their foreheads so EVERYONE can see that they pose a threat to children and anyone who touches a child in any indecent way should be castrated or hanged from the nearest tree.


Before all the so called human rights people /do gooders start telling me how wrong I am let me say I was an 8 yr old who was abused by a relative,so I know what I had to go through and also realise I was one of the lucky ones ,today these evil people do far worse to little ones and they stick together in groups sharing their perverted ways ,these people are devious two faced EVIL (not sick) predatory individuals who hide their perverted ways with real cunning and clever acts.Make no mistake they come from all walks of life which makes it all the more difficult to catch them


Our police and social services must come down hard on them and any law which will make children saferis a good law I hope the government will make the laws even if it catches just one should be encouraged.


The other thing I hope is that people will look at individuals in their community and if they have any suspicion about whether they are a risk to children they speak to the police social services and let them make a decision on how to deal with them.there is a quote which is absolutely right it is this "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing,"
Reply:this is completely stupid.





If you are convicted of a sexual offence and used a computer you are normally banned from using them - the police will check up and enforce this. I know as they turned up at my workplace to nick some guy who lied about his convictions when he applied for at job at my firm, it can see pedos back in prison.





How do they think they will enforce this? are all nonces known...i don't think so (well with the exception of Wenger).
Reply:I agree - that was exactly what I thought when I heard it on the news this morning.





I can't believe they actually release such obviously flawed plans to the press. They sound even more incompetent today than I thought they were last night. I didn't think it was possible.





Maybe those bright investigative sparks are trying to keep their own sordid pass times under cover. Surely someone up there can come up with a less leaky plan.
Reply:And how long does it take to get a new email addy? About 2 mins?
Reply:lets just ban sex offenders from breathing and do us all a favour
Reply:Yes I saw this item...and I agree with you...you can change your e-mail anytime, so how do they know....there is no obligation when you register for these sites to give your correct name, so there is no way it can be policed.....yet another gimmick.
Reply:it will never work. do the authorities think the public are totally naive?
Reply:Just a ploy to be seen to be doing something I'm afraid.


I think you are correct how will this be policed? Why just not ban all types of sex offenders from owning any equipment that can accsess the internet?


Oh right I forgot they would be able to sue the government for their breach of human rights
Reply:its a logistical nightmare, does this cover all offenders or just the UK and/or Europe ones. better to withdraw all access entirely. As to the accounts and using different addresses, you shouldn't have to look to far to get that answer.

This is for a english class,how does social networking web sites affect our social life?

have to do a presentation. would like to know if there are any statics of Americans that are chat in chat rooms, and how does this affect our social life. what really good things can I win the class with in doing this presentation. have a little information but not much, all info will help since I am having to speak for ten minutes.

This is for a english class,how does social networking web sites affect our social life?
I don't know what grade level you're audience is, but I'm guessing fairly beginning.





The internet has enabled people to interact with others all over the world, and allowed a great exchange of ideas and lifestyles. Formally isolated people have an outlet for social activity.


It has also been counterproductive since it allows people to live in a fantasy world as well. They do not have to be truthful, but can be anyone they want to be. This means they do not have to actually interact with real people face to face and may further isolate them.





I would pick one position (chat rooms are good/chat rooms are bad for our social life) and then defend that position. Just mention the other side at the end. Stats are availabe through your online electronic library sources like ERIC and so on.





Just throw in some statistics somewhere at the beginning to please the teacher. For instance, stats on teens are that they are on social networking web pages a lot: 61% of 13- to 17-year-olds have a profile on a social interenet sites (like myspace). See the resource below. Usually just one stat will satisfy a beginning type class.
