The Bible NETWork ~ Impacting the World for Christ one post at a time!

Has anyone tried the MySpace alternatives? Did you find it tough to get your youth group to migrate over to another site?

If you are looking for alternatives you can see a list here: http://blog.colossians2.com/2007/01/07/dangers-of-myspace/

If you have any input I would appreciate it.

Personally I have never used it but have visited friends blogs etc. I have my own blog on e-blogger so I had no need to go to myspace. In my own opinion myspace.com was a place that had idiots on there. But that doesnt mean ALL of them are idiots. I never actually saw christians on there so in that view I cant answer. I had no interest in myspace personally. But thats a non christian view. I am new to christian.

Those alternatives, I have never heard of but they sound good.

I may be of some help considering I am a youth that often uses MySpace. Are you concerned about the content? If so, it might make more sense to provide your youth with strong morals and beliefs to prevent them from being negatively influenced; what is taboo is often the most desired. With the new release of MySpace applications, it is now a new and effective branch for ministry to reach out, not just to youth, but to all MySpace users. Bible.org even developed a MySpace add-on that provides information and a link to the site, and there are many applications including daily bible verses, links to theological sites, etc. Hope this helps,
