Social networking for students

I came across this article on Wired which reviews the major players in the social networking arena (as far as students may be concerned).

It’s an interesting array - perhaps the audit trails could supply some data about usage among our students? I know personally among my peers, it was all myspace until about two months ago, when there seemed to be a mass exodus in favour of facebook.

Whenever I walk through the labs, there’s usually at least one person who, at a glance, is obviously on facebook. But I rarely see anyone accessing myspace anymore. Although that could just be because myspace pages are harder to recognise, given the level of customisation available.
