Facebook, myYearbook, Friendster Addiction

Technology now offers many things. It grants us the easy access in everything we want to know and we want to discover. But I guess Computer is the best product of technology. You can instantly send messages to your love ones abroad regardless of the distances. You can surf the internet and when you have papers to make it would be very easy for you to edit it without additional burden.

Staying in a quite undeveloped place I learned to use computer late enough compared to some people who has the money. At first I don't even know how to turn it off and turn it on. I don't know what to could on the pats of the computer. In short I am really naive when it comes to this product.

Time changes. All poor things improve. All dark minds were enlighten same as my naivety in using computer. I am now a Computer Science student and at least I learned many things about computer. If at first I don't know any part of the computer now i could proudly say I've learned enough already. I may not learn all but I guess I've learned enough to make me pursue the field where I am now.

Addiction. We all know that frequent using of computer is bad. To much could affect ones health(I guess). But why is it that addiction among teens and actually all people regardless of the age get hooked in sites like Friendster, Facebook, myYearbook, etc.. What could be the secrets of this sites?

Me, myself first learn about the site FRIENDSTER. Friendster is a privately owned social networking website. Its headquarters are in Sydney, Australia. The service allows users to contact other members, maintain those contacts, and share online content and media with those contacts. This site is also used for dating, discovering new events, video and photo sharing and a lot more.

During my five months of using Friendster, I always see too it that my shout outs were updated. That my layouts were the best. I always open it. Actually I've spend four hours in Friendster alone. See how addict I am when it comes to Friendster?

Years passed. I get tired. It seems that Friendster does not have appeal on me now. I rarely open my account. I don't update my shout outs anymore. And then I discovered FAcebook. I like the games. They have a lot of it actually.

As we all know Facebook is a global social networking website that is operated and privately owned by Facebook, Inc. Users can add friends and send them messages, and update their personal profiles to notify friends about themselves. Additionally, users can join networks organized by city, workplace, school, and region. The website's name stems from the colloquial name of books given at the start of the academic year by university administrations with the intention of helping students get to know each other better.

More and more sites mushroomed in the internet. People find it hard to choose of which site they are going to sign. People get confused wether this site is a good one or not. Months ago I discover a site that really caught my attention. It really puts me into addiction. I don't want to be away with that site for just an hour. I enjoy bidding, i enjoy playing its unique game, I enjoy being in group. I enjoy myYearbook.




My yearbook is a social networking site and open to all prospected member. Anyone can enjoy buy friends comment on picture and be in a battle.

Addiction in this sites is bad as I weigh it. But who cares? I enjoy it.
