Hey Fred, I'm with you about myspace. I can't remember the last time I got on it, and only really use it to post some of my originals tunes. I tend to use Facebook & Twitter the most, along with my blog.

Twitter is definitely the bomb. But like most everyone I'm agreeing that Facebook trumps all.. Myspace and tumblr are close seconds. Haven't heard of Plurk just yet..

I use almost all of them. My favorites are facebook and twitter. I use ping.fm instead hello.txt simple because I can do blogger posts through it as well as status updates. I've also been playing with brightkite.com, which is location-based social networking, kinda fun. Loopt is another that I've not tried. Pownce is another that adds filesharing - very handy for exchanging soundclips and charts with members of your team.

I've been on Myspace for years, but like you, never really log into in anymore. Maybe once a week, or if I get a message. I have a Bebo account as well (church folks were using that for awhile, because it's "less dark" than Myspace) but just about everyone I know stopped using it.

Facebook is pretty big with our youth and members of our church. It's clean, simple and a good way to share photos and messages. That's probably the site I use most.

I have a LinkedIn profile as well, but this is more business and old college aquaintences. (You've got requests from me on all of them, BTW, Fred. :)

I guess I don't really get Twitter, or don't see the value in it yet. I have to look further into it.

Fred,
I'm focusing right now on blogging, facebook, and twitter. I've resisted the urge to plurk or otherwise.

Tribes sounds like something cool that I may need to invest in.

Tyler,
Not so much trying to keep up with all of them, as much as using the "status" to update folks who for whatever weirdo reason, are following me. Granted, I suppose if they reply, I'll have to "keep up". We'll see. I can always cancel one.

Good luck keeping track of all of those. Blogging and Facebook along with email is enough for me.

Way to go, Fred! hellotxt.com and I think a service called ping.fm allow you to choose a whole bunch of social networking sites to update. I like the concept.

I have a myspace music account. I actually use it as my personal account as well. It has it's ups and downs. I've actually connected with about the same number of people from the past on both facebook and myspace, so I like to keep them both updated.

Favorite social networking tool? My big fat mouth. I'll talk to anybody, anywhere, about anything.

Btw, I was considering having some shirts made up that say "I Go There" as a warning to unsuspecting strangers.

Facebook and Twitter all the way for me.

I have a Myspace page that I never log into unless I need to approve a Friend request -- which isn't often, since hardly anyone knows I'm on Myspace. I do run the Sojournrecords Myspace site, but again, I don't really like going there.

I probably update Twitter most often, but Facebook is a close second -- and I post my videos there. Reserving judgment on the new Facebook page, though.
