American Class Divisions Through Facebook and MySpace

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the something-to-think-about dept.

Jamie found this paper earlier about American Class Divisions and Facebook and MySpace. The paper talks about the history of the two sites, what groups tend to use what site. They also talk about what proponents of each site think of the other. It's actually an interesting read and worth your time.

    I was just telling my sister yesterday: "Facebook is Myspace for people who actually graduated high school."

    Five paragraphs into this 'article' and it became clear the author needs to rethink college and stay in MySpace.

    No, "retarted," as in "We're all tarts...again."
