Of networking sites and preferences

You have a Multiply account right?  And obviously Friendster, and Facebook, a Blogspot, probably a MySpace account, throw in a Hi5 and other countless networking sites out there in the internet.  We have all been “victimized” by our vanity in the positive hope of communicating with lost friends and somehow re-invigorate and feel the sense of belonging.


But isn’t having too many accounts enough?  We don’t really need to register to all those redundant sites with nothing more to offer except – uploading pictures.  Pictures on the bathroom, pictures before going to sleep, picture after waking up before washing your face, pictures and lots and lots of pictures.  If you are a golfer, would you register for membership at all golf clubs?  I’m sure you get my point.  Can I even manage updating each and every one of those sites?  I do not think so.


So with all the hype about bonding thru social networking, I decided to concentrate on where else, but here in Multiply.  Each has their own uniqueness, and a couple sites that looks alike some others, yet Multiply is very distinctive with its design layout.  It is a sort of a mini personal website with its customizable themes, if you know the right HTML or CSS tweaks that you like.  Entries are segregated by its type of data, whether you are writing some of your ramblings or posting your bikini tops.  It does look organized, and for a litter bug like me, it is pleasing.


I have registered to a lot of sites, but you won’t probably see my dedication in updating them unlike here. 


Besides, this is what my parish priest has been saying all along…


“go ahead and Multiply…”
