Haven’t you see MySpace, facebook and blogs. Annoyingly, just as complaints about literacy multiply, along comes a technology that has promoted a renaissance in reading and writing, yet it is treated with contempt by the ‘pen and paper’ brigade. Children don’t keep diaries any more – oh yeah! They’re obsessed by diary keeping.

Friends are made over digital networks and kids who have met one time keep in contact for years via updates to Facebook, MySpace or other social networking pages. Playing a video game is no longer done alone or with one or two friends in the room; games are played across the world with hundreds players who never physically meet one another.

Products/services like Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, etc. This is because we use products/services/objects to express ourselves. This is a secondary function – to communicate your identity to others. In the eLearning context, it’s sad, this is where a LOT of our courseware products fail miserably.

I would love to think that MOOCs would be above this given their underlying mission, and perhaps in some ways it will be (or risk losing the participation of schools like Princeton), but I think it is safe to say that a change will occur – Here’s to hoping it doesn’t go the way of MySpace.

I somewhat understand why MySpace might get blocked (28%) but given how many people are using Facebook for business connections, blocking it at almost the same rate is a little bit of a surprise. Of course, factor in that 2.6% tell us that Wikipedia is blocked. So, maybe reduce all of the other numbers by that amount.

And, of course, there's stuff like MySpace which again may not technically count as blogging even though it's personal journaling and commenting. If there was a MySpace for teachers who could exchange issues and ideas, do you think they'd use it to any great degree. Gee, I wonder if that might have some pick-up?

Let’s say the website goes the way of MySpace. The content you publish on your own site belongs to you. But when you publish on someone else’s site, you cede control of that content, if not ownership. All the posts you made go with it, as does the audience you worked to generate.

A recent US research project (by a PhD student mind you) has reported that users of FaceBook are generally toffs from wealthier homes and are more likely to study in further/higher education than that great unwashed working class lot who like using MySpace. I used to have a MySpace , but abandoned it because FaceBook was easier to use.
