[Maggi <librarymaggi@GMAIL.COM>]

I was thinking about Facebook woes and came across this web site:

http://www.commonsensemedia.org/10-facebook-alternatives?utm_source=newsletter02.23.10&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=feature2

you tried any of these social networking web sites at school, or had  
these conversations with your students?
