Hi Vicki,

 

What do you think accounts for the appeal of Facebook over Myspace, and
do you thin it would be a good fit for an education setting/learning
community?

Best,

Mariann

In Canada, Facebook is hugely popular. I don't have the statistics
handy, but from what I have read recently, Canadians as a group are the
largest Facebook users. Anecdotally, I know very few people who still
use MySpace; most have switched to Facebook, and others who would never
consider using MySpace have joined Facebook.
