My Space

Me as a South Park character. I guess I did a good job since my co-workers say it looks like me ( :
I've had a MySpace account for some time, mostly for the purpose of connecting with friends and classmates. Through my initiation into library school at the University of Arizona, I met friends from Tucson, Las Vegas, and Arkansas. It is really great to be able to catch up with them online through MySpace.
I can also see how it would be a way to let teen patrons know about library programs.
However, my niece was telling me that she and most of her friends avoid MySpace in favor of
Facebook. She says that there are many predators using MySpace, so most teenagers prefer Facebook. I think this is something KCLS should take into consideration.
I also have a MySpace URL http://www.myspace.com/jessmex77
The picture on my MySpace account and webpage URL is calle Mihrab and is by the famous Turkish painter Osman Hamdi.
