myspace.com decribes itself as "a place for friends". All kinds of friendships are being built if you look at some of myspace.com stats.
Wow. With statistics like that you have to ask yourself what kind of friends can I make on myspace?
Well if you are only down with hangin' with the cool cats, myspace.com makes it easy for you. One stop peer shopping. Just visit the myspace.com homepage where they showcase a fresh crop of "Cool New People". You can get the hook up to gangsta G$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ who defines himself as a “pimp so what are you”. Finally a place where I can meet people that not only share who they are but want to know more about me.
Not really into an A-list type crowd or maybe you just want to kick it old school. No worries. Just do a search for your current role model – like Kevin Federline. For real, yo. K-Fed lets you drop a listen to his new single Americas Most Hated. Track highlights include “lyrical exercise workin’ every muscle” and “the most anticipated but most under rated, Kevin Federline Americas Most Hated.” Nope – that isn’t a typo in the spelling of Americas.
I can't help but think that myspace.com is today's version of Geocities and Angelfire after a solid year of doing Texas sized doses of meth. But I'll think about all this later - I need to figure out some new moves to bust out for K-Fed's track. Yo. Laters.

Created by marketing guru Seth Godin, Squidoo is an online platform of hand-built directories that anyone can create for free.
Seth describes Squidoo as:
"Squidoo lets anyone build a simple, free web page that points to blogs, online stores, maps and other information on a single topic—any topic. Each page can contain insight, bullet points, links, products and pictures, and each page earns royalties for its creator or for charity.
Squidoo leverages the power of personal recommendation. The site will eventually host millions of handmade ‘lenses’, each a focused, useful guide to some area of expertise, some glimpse of the net. Instead of aimlessly poking, a lens lets a user see the big picture—a human being’s big picture, the overview you need to get the meaning of the idea.
The heart of Squidoo is the lens. A lens can point the best hotels in London. Or blogs with pictures and articles about Paris Hilton. Or personal accounts about Hurricane Katrina.
A lens can expose a cross-section of the web, a more personal and more humanly relevant take that no computer could ever create. A lens is an easy-to-build page of links and referrals. Two lenses may be on the same topic, but they are never the same — every lens is personal, and every lens is built by a person, a Lensmaster."

Dean Garstecki, chairman of Northwestern's Communication Sciences and Disorders Department is warning people who listen to thier portable audio devices using earbuds to be careful or else be prepared for the likeihood of hearing loss.
According to research the "earbuds' close proximity to the eardrum, in combination with their ability to magnify the sound signal by as much as six to nine decibels, raises the intensity of the sound" thus promoting the likelihood of hearing loss.
"Garstecki and other audiologists want music listeners to adopt their so-called "60 percent, 60 minute" rule. The solution, they said, is to spend no more than one hour each day listening to an MP3 player or iPod with the volume level lower than 60 percent of the maximum.
"If music listeners are willing to turn the volume down further still and use different headphones, they can increase the amount of time that they can safely listen," Garstecki pointed out."
