I'm not a Facebook or MySpace user either, although I was fascinated to learn that DaniWeb has had a Facebook group for a year now that I never even knew about.

I use FaceBook myself as there are a number of online communities whose members I know well which have set up groups there. Also, the simplicity of the interface is great, very well suited to purpose.

However, it is not something I am driven to visit every hour or even every day. Unlike certain other online communities such as DaniWeb or Cix (UK text based conferencing system of some 20 years standing, very similar to The Well in many regards) which have a much more compelling sense of belonging and interaction IMHO.

What do you think about networking capabilities?

I use Facebook rather heavily (daily). I've been an early adopter of Facebook since before it was rolled out to the public. I have to say that without Facebook, I probably wouldn't get job offers and the like. Surprising, eh?

MySpace is less popular for me. It's not as "intellectual" according to a recent study by a Ph.D. candidate. I'm inclined to agree, but for other reasons (see link).

Facebook and Myspace is a good social networking site on which you can used in promote your site and get a network. Facebook have some additional application and features on which you can used. You cannot easily get a network here. But Myspace has a complete features from forum, classifieds, blogs and a lot more. I think Myspace is very useful

I would say Facebook hands down. The interface is cleaner, and it gets the message across a lot easier.

I am a user of ORKUT, Myspace and several other community based websites and have joined Facebook last weeks and found more it more secure and useful than all other websites.

wow...i didn't see this thread...but, i posted some of my ideas for facebook on another thread.....

http://www.daniweb.com/forums/post50...tml#post501792

Iv'e used MySpace in conjunction with Facebook....ultimately my MySpace site, and Facebook Group weren't created to advertise my forum......the forum was an idea that came long after I had built my myspace page to having over 8,000 members......that, too, like the thread, is a tribute to the U.S. Military Veterans of Iraq and AFghanistan.....i put my heart into it, and, even to this day, i have tons of friend requests daily....

I even developed merchandise for the group I had started.....and, had a free t-shirt contest, if people added the site to their top friends list, and submitted their mySpace URL.....I compiled them in a list on Microsoft word, and did a completely random drawing....and sent the winner a tshirt......

and, of course, at the very top of the myspace page, i have a link to the forum.....along with an accompanying picture.....

....and, the value of bulletins are priceless.....if you develop the right friends, theyll be more than willing to repost the bulletin to the ends of cyberspace.....

one of my good friends had published his personal journal from his service in Iraq.....and, I set up an affiliation with amazon....and, sold about 20 of his books in just a few bulletins.....because people would post and repost and repost....

so, there are just a few ideas......I hope these help a little :).....be creative, but don't try to make it like your'e deceiving people....people like companies/ stocks who's officers regard transparency of company operations, etc.....so, try to implement those values into your practices....
