For this project I tried out 8 different sites, 6 that were completely new to me. I must say that overall I really still enjoy Facebook the most. Facebook is the perfect site for me because you can do anything you want on it. With some of the other sites like Twitter or Flickr your restricted to just one aspect of applications. With Facebook you can do just about anything you could think to do on the internet which is awesome. Facebook is basically my internet life in a nutshell and I prefer it… Continue

Pandora is an awesome music site! I am not big into music at all but this site was too cool is pass up.

Friendfeed is an interesting site. I still haven't decided if I like it or not. Its fun that you can link other sites like Facebook and Twitter to your friendfeed. I guess the real question is though do you really need to be on all these sites if your just going to link them all together so that you know whats happening on all of them. How interested can you really be in the sites individually if your going to do this? For me I would just rather stick with one site where the majority of my frien… Continue
