Social Class Separates Facebook, MySpace

Social networking researcher Danah Boyd says in a new essay that “SOCIAL CLASS” separates Facebook from MySpace. “Generally, she contended, ‘The goody-two-shoes, jocks, athletes and other ‘good’ kids are now going to Facebook. These kids tend to come from families who emphasize education and going to college.’ MySpace is still home for ‘kids whose parents didn’t go to college, who are expected to get a job when they finish high school.’”
