Getting Started: What is MySpace?

Ok, so all your friends have at least one MySpace account and they keep talking about it every time you get together. So, you ask "What is the big deal with MySpace?"

Well, since you click on this link, I am assuming that you are not a MySpace user or maybe you are but not as fanatic as your friends or maybe you just don't get what the fuss is about. Well, you know what? Today is your lucky day because I will tell you what the real deal is with MySpace!

What is MySpace?

To start off, MySpace is a social networking website. When we say social networking, it allows users of the website to interact with one another. Therefore, MySpace allows you to talk to, share interests, and make friends with other users.

MySpace is becoming more and more popular everyday because most people use it to look for long lost friends and relatives, make new acquaintances from all over the world, join groups of people sharing the same interests as them (music, movies, games, sports, etc...), and find that one special person they are meant to be with! :)

What else can be done with MySpace?

MySpace offers many interesting features, some of which are blog, bulletin, comments, groups, forums, news, and even multimedia tools like music and videos. This is exactly the reason why some people spend hours on the Internet just browsing MySpace -- because you don't really need to go out to meet new people and get to know them well.

What's up with personalizing MySpace profiles?

To personalize your MySpace profile such that it is themed according to your taste and personality, you can change its layout and background, add images and songs, and even embed videos. Making your profile interesting would attract people to view it and thus, allowing you to meet more friends.

Singing up on MySpace...
