I moved to the UK about 8 years ago when I was two years into secondary school. By that time obviously, I had a lot of friends back home in South Africa. I had already made those connections and had to leave some great friends behind thinking I'd never see them again. Anyway the years went by etc etc, and yes I did still miss them and wander what they had been up to. I tried getting in touch with them through friends reunited and such with no luck. I had just accepted it was just one of those things and that just maybe I'd bump into them if I ever went back to visit. Well it was around April 2007 when my husband got an email by one of his friends ...  Read the complete review

I first made a facebook account years ago before it was very popular, then myspace came along and I switched to using that. I liked myspace because you could personalise your page and because of the bands you could find on there and listen to their music. Although the problem with myspace is that you get a lot of random people and bands message and try to add you. Whereas you don't get that on facebook as people tend to search for you by your full name. Now facebook has become a lot more popular than myspace with the news feed and status updates being a great way to keep up to date with your friends and wall posts being a good way to keep in contact. It is also a ...  Read the complete review

The choice is made easy for social networking websites now as Facebook has become the top dog. Made a profile on this website in 2004 first but never actually used it.When it became more famous in 2007 then I started to use the website more and more. Security on the website has to be admired as they do all the security measures. The chances of a fake profile being seen on the website are less. They note down all the IP's so if any one does hack a account they can track them down.Being a member on the website I get the chance to connect with old friends. Lot of people who I have not seen since college years are users of the website. It has become a world wide ...  Read the complete review

About 6 years ago a company called myspace decided to create the idea social networking online for the masses. A model based round user benefit free to connect with new and old friends, coworkers and random people from Iceland to Mozambique. As we approach the end of the decade there is only one name people (except the occasionally tweet) think of with social networking and that is Facebook. Facebook origins lie in the US and was originally launched in 2004. It has since become the most used social networking website available. Its dramatic rise has been contributed to is ease of use as oppose to myspace's vast options to customise one's ...  Read the complete review

Facebook is a very easy to use social networking site. There is much controversy about putting details on your profile which is widely accessible by people online. But you decide how much information you put on your page. I only signed up to Facebook because all my friends were on it. But when I started I got on with it so fast. However I also had experience with its competitors such as 'Myspace' and 'Bebo'. These two were very good as you could make it look so personal. But if you are new to the concept of 'social networking' then Facebook is a really good start. Its free and find your friends is so easy. You do not have to allow everyone to view your page. ...  Read the complete review
