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.

I learned some basic html coding when I was just 11 years old because I constantly wanted to update the backgrounds on my NeoPets and MySpace profiles.

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.

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.

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.
