For me, the best one is MySpace... if you have a music project.
Otherwise, they all have limited real utility value save as a way to keep in contact with old friends et al.

argh
they are all horrible
actually hi5 is okay because it's not that addictive.
I have never even SEEN facebook. But over all I think they fakerize your real relationships and belies a sense of familiarity that isn't really there.
How many "friends" do I have on hi5 that I rarely spoke to in school? oh, maybe 50 out of 75. Some people have hundreds. And we wonder why modern people are so lonely. It's because they stare at glowing screens too much.

what I do is have a 50 friend limit so that I don't look like a hi5 ho. If a better/hotter/more popular friend comes alone I add them and then look for somebody to delete. Its a dog eat dog world out there.

oh my god man, what did are you talking about "laid-back community"? This is a serious website! Anyday now we'll find the cure for a major mental illness or something like that which is significantly significant.

for the last time, this is a jamaican website, therefore it is laid back.

Well, I like Hi5 and MySpace, but just to look at. To me, they don't really serve a purpose, but that might just be because I am not single. If I was single, I'd prolly be able to work those sites.

I used to use it but I find that relationships that I build from the internet always end up naughty and its harder to escape

that's the point I think--we are supposed to ask ourselves "is or isn't he?"

I like hi5. It's a lot more serious than the immature and sex offender filled MySpace. They all have those glittery webpages that I hate.

the glittery pages are annoying as hell. there should be a way to turn them off

You know what I like about Facebook? The books application, where you can rate books. That way, if you want to, you can check out a book before you buy it.

Im on Hi5, myspace and facebook. Overall they soothe my curiosities. If i want to find anything out about anyone i can check those, tho they are limited in one way or another, for the rest of the info i use my special talents to hack into ppl's brain...hehe, but they serve no real purpose. Bloggin is way better.

yeah, i don't really enjoy the application spam. But you can always decline to add the application. On a positive side that is how i found the books application and puzzlebee application which are two of my favorites
