If money doesn't grow on trees, then why do banks have branches?

My vote: Facebook

My Vote: none of the above

Sorry guys, but I really really hate the whole 'social networking' thing. Sure its good to talk to friends and have fun, but theres just no privacy anymore. Theres a million reasons to hate these sites, heres a few of mine. Most businesses will check your 'facebook' page or whatever to see what kind of person you are before they consider hiring you. Criminals search these sites to see who's posting vacation photos from their cellphone so they know your not home, then rob your house. And one I find really amusing, I have a friend who was tagged in a photo making out with an ex-girlfriend and his girlfriend had her brother beat the living crap out of him. He wasnt cheating, it was an old photo. Although that last one is was damn funny, still a good reason to stay away from these evil sites.

Twitter and only twitter.

That's why facebook and sites alike, introduced "privacy settings" so now anyone who isnt my friend can only see my profile picture :)

Facebook. There's nothing overly wrong with the social networking sites themselves, only the way users work with them. I have a restricted amount of information visible to the public (that is, almost none) but to the people I have listed as friends, it's all visible. Considering my friends list consists only of people I know or knew personally offline, this is pretty safe. Think of it as being less of a social networking site and more of a communications medium, with all of us working and leading our own family lives, it's a fantastic way for us to keep in touch.

As far as privacy goes, it often begs the question of common sense coming into play. Would you go around to friends showing them a photo of you passionately kissing your girlfriend? No? Then why would you post that on your Facebook wall? Same deal. The only thing I don't like about Facebook is that I have no way to hide the name of the company I work for to the public. If only friends could see it, that would be fine, but at the moment everyone can see it and I can't find any logical way to restrict it.

1) Facebook
2) Twitter
3) IRC =D

Facebook is #1 because I'm totally addicted to FrontierVille. Twitter is #2 because there are some really, really funny people on there.

I'd have to say IRC.:D

I'd have to go toward Facebook, It's just addictive.

Facebook! An easy way to play games and such that actually takes time to accomplish games through time. Not those 1 hour finish games. One think I dislike though is that you'd need to get neightbours to complete certain structures or objects.

"Pineapples and shit."

Facebook just because I can talk to people and see pictures of people... But I rarely go on so not to effective, I rather sit on MSN.

My vote goes to tumblr. 

I love blogging, and i love making makeup tutorials and fashion stuff, and tumblr is good site to post these stuff into, plus there are lot of young people that are looking for that kinda of stuff.

My second vote goes to Twitter :3

Other: Steam - really should be added to the list as its own choice
