face book, I wish they didn't change the layout though. I like the simplicity of it though and how everyone has it.

myspace is too much (music + everything)
twitter confuses me and is also boring
bebo is just trying to be like facebook but better and its also bad - dont like videos + being able to change backgrounds er thats horrible everyone always competing for the best one

Facebook has many reasons to pick it as best.
1. profile photo
2. limited access to many things to prevent others from accessing it.
3. it's been setup to be used on various platforms including those on mobile devices.
4. you have the option of videos, music video's, comments on them and photos.
5. can post things and set limits on them too me only, friends only, friends of friends, and everyone.
6. can be used to help family and friends stay in touch with one another and far less confusing to the masses unlike many other copies of facebook like the ones you had mentioned along with numerous others.
7. can setup things based on religion, schooling, locations, and even sell things on it.
8. free to paying games.

MySpace has bad reputation far worse than any other even been given the name MyCrack referring to the drug.
1. annoying home pages that are so full of back ground videos, graphics, texts of various sizes, comments and much more.
2. can take a long to to an extremely long time to load an entire home page on MySpace.
3. it's more of a social site of sex or a bad version of match.com meets adult site.
4. known malware issues from people blindly copying HTML codes from unknown sites they google searched for without using a good paid for anti-virus site to help filter out questionable sites.
5. they have not bothered to police their pages of suggestive photos and comments.

Twitter is recommended by many to use for job hunting and yet it's very confusing.
1. allowed very limited actions that you can do on your supposed "home page".
2. majority of the posts or twitts are that of NEWS, which can be and are read on CNET, Yahoo NEWS and CNN News and New York NEWS sites.
3. Reading twitter some things are very lame things like I'm at McDonalds eating or Sitting at Starbucks. This is like free advertising and yet none of the users get paid or discounts through the site. Unlike the discounts you can get through Facebook pages from the vendor's. Type in Subway on Facebook you will see they offer things along with many other vendor's.
4. Limited on the size of the Links aka URL's aka characters that are used on it.
5. No way to set privacy level's if their are then it's because it's confusing to me where they are.
6. Twitter has a bad name ..remember this saying "are you going to sit there and twitter your life away?" Yes it is a very old saying.
7. Anything posted on there is seen by all.
8. It's like a twisted warped version of doing Instant Messenger.

LinkedIn does allow vendor's from certain companies to have access to your information.
1. It's to much like Monster and a poor version of Facebook/twitter combination package.
2. They want so much details and they do not let you have more privacy level settings.
3. Great way for your ex girl/boy friend or spouse to find you.
4. How do you block certain people or companies like current employer? Yes I did a setup of it to see what it was like and found it unsafe in several ways.
5. Why have this when you have many other job search networks and really do not see it as a good source for a social network.

Bebo is the new fad it took it's copying from Hi5, have you heard of it?
1. very much like a myspace minus the malware being such high rick in comparison's.
2. to much accessibilty to your photo's and text.
3. very easy to add new people no one bother's to limit who they have just like myspace.
4. no app's to play.
5. no vendor's posting their sites on the pages or discounts either.
6. more for young adults and teenagers to use.
7. more about friends and music than anything else.

Reverbnation do not recall what this one was like it's been to long since I was on it.


Remember to vote for best answer, thanks!
