MediaWiseŽ Network launches MySpace.com Parent Tutorial

Have you heard of MySpace.com? No doubt your kids have. MySpace.com is the most popular social networking web site among young people today. With more than 50 million members, most under the age of 22, MySpace.com has swept the nation. Kids are spending countless hours here chatting, blogging, listening to music, posting photos and searching for others to catch up with online.

Kids have always looked for places to gather to gossip, be seen, be cool, listen to music and "hang out". This isn't new. What is new is where these gathering places are and who else is around. We adults better pay attention because online social sites have just as many, if not more, opportunities and pitfalls as "real world" teenage hangouts.
