Thing 20

I chose to register with Facebook as it had an American Library Association option. I think I can understand how this social network phenomena happened as most teens have the need to belong to a "group" and this Internet vehicle provides ready and immediate access to a group. Also, it enables global connections. A point from the video is well-taken as networking is also an important means to finding jobs, apartments, what you need, etc.

The Hennepin Library MySpace revealed that many teens and authors are interested and willing to share through this format.
