I added a lovely pink clock to my blog (because I lose track of time while I'm here). I tried to add the Word of the Day widget; an English teacher could never resist that one. When I added it, it ended up being cut off along one side. Did I do something wrong. I was using the HTML boxes in the "Layout" options to add Widgets. Hmmm...
Relationships formed online could be as strong or a weak as the effort put into them. People who have common interests can connect in real life or online. Those online relationships are often developed around a specific common interest and could be just a meaningful, but in different ways.
MySpace and Facebook are probably popular with kids for the same reasons that adults are attracted to them: 1) These sites provide a way to stay connected to people that you may not otherwise see or stay in touch with, 2) Those sites can be personalized to reflect our personalities and, thereby, become an extension of ourselves, and 3) The sites give us a place to document our lives and respond to others. Since I've been on Facebook, I've been more connected to people who live far away that I still want to be connected to.
