Facebook is NOT "more mature". A monotonous color theme and lack of customization does not = mature.I've said this before, and I'll say it again. Myspace is just like Mugen. It has the potential for great awesomeness, or awful shit. I love the customization possibilities. I mean, my profile is very neat, has plenty of info with a few sprites and video game imagery in a nice and organized way, along with a black background + colored text. But on the other hand, nearly everyone else on the site has like eight thousand glitter .gifs and some blaring loud rap music or some shit with unorganized text all over the place. So yeah. But Facebook seriously removes the potential for a "fun" profile at all. A profile can either be A) Bland and boring with little to nothing on there, or B) Filled with shitty apps.A few years from now I'm sure some other social networking site with even less features and an even more bland appearance will come out and people will go OMG THIS IS SO MATURE FACEBOOK IS GAY LOL. Its just a trend, seriously.
twitter led to this : http://twitter.com/EBERTCHICAGOwhich keeps me from killing everyone around me on a daily basis
People say FB is mature because it doesn't scare non-technical ppl away, most of them being of the "mature" age group.

Its just a trend, seriously.there must be a balance between a template form and customability, otherwise it would be either boring uniform, or a total chaos.I say the form & fon't should stay the same, but the color scheme and BG for the main frame can be customized. since color scheme can represent who you are to some extent

To be honest that is my preferred "social networking" site at the moment. Jesuszilla said, July 24, 2010, 04:08:43 amhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEK6hWHZ2hYI loved this episode.
MSN, phone, and occasionally e-mail. I had a facebook, but it's pretty fucking gay. I mean If I removed my pictures and info from it it'd help, but no, fuck that shit. 99% of my friends list are people I don't know or care about(as is just about everyone's and myspace included), the same applies for MSN, but at least MSNing doesn't come off quite as pretentious. MySpace was always annoying. Twitter seems it was made for people who don't actually realize no one cares about them, aside from themselves. Teen girls also like to check up on their fav celebs and comment about their <3s and how fresh and hip and groovy they are. Fuckin kids. Marketing/advertising is honestly the only thing that isn't stupid which I have come across.I did hear one cool thing about Facebook though, I think it's called FarmLand or FarmVille or some shit, where you basically play Harvest Moon without any of the interesting stuff. Sounds fun as hell.I voted Nether.

A monotonous color theme and lack of customization does not = mature.I remember when they tried to pass off gaia as a "mature site", but that turned into a kids site real-fast, just based on the fact that you could customize your avatar an all that extra shit that older people just don't respond to. Facebook, just leaves it blank. Its a profile of yourself/family and friends, not the things around it.For me thats not anything big, i feel better knowing that the persons page I'm going to won't give me a seashore, in five seconds.
myspace is more for "kids" since old people doesn't care much about their profile or other customizable stuff...but it's also a good place to have your band profile, believe it or not, it has been a good source of followers for me...facebook is for "old" people, but it's infested with kids for the apps... and I have been told FV becomes boring after awhile you play it.twitter, just for those who believe are importants (mostly celebrities) and nolife kids xD
Social networking is like shout out in the air, you think everybody is listening, but nobody actually goes through and reads everything you post.
Twitter is just the request forum here with a character limit where everyone has "notify" on a thread. They have reinvented forums, and made them more limited.I have facebook, it doesn't interest me.
FB cuz i talk with other people and stuff.twitter i made once out of boredom and deleted cuz i got spammed with links of random old-peoples porn.Myspace is meh.
To be honest I don't really like any of them. I prefer to keep in contact with people over the phone or be meeting. I don't have much experience of twitter but I really dislike facebook and myspace
