Commentary on MySpace, Second Life and Twitter

PC Magazine just posted a commentary by their editor, Lance Ulanoff, about the life expectancy of MySpace, Second Life, and Twitter. His thoughts mirror mine.

Week 2, Exercise 1: MySpace

MySpace examples:

Denver Public Library: Annoying music, geared towards teens.

University of Texas Libraries
: Geared towards students.

Thomas Ford Memorial Library: Geared towards teens, but profile says 84 year old male.

Comments on all. I noted that most of the "friends comments" were from other libraries and published authors. Is the target audience coming to their pages? From Thomas Ford's blog apparently not, the teen librarian is beseeching teens to stop by, without success.
