Are you addicted to Facebook? Ask yourself a few questions to help determine the answer:

Do you play several games on Facebook? These games are notorious or being time-wasters because they are designed to keep you on the site. If you are a Facebook addict, you probably play a game such as Farmville or Mob Wars or My Kitten. Make no mistake, these are designed to hook you. The longer you play, the greater the rewards. You can also feel like you “have to” log in, to do things like tend crops.

Mob Wars can be deceptive. You may be tempted to log in really quick to do another hit. Before you know it though, you’ll have spent the entire day playing and the ‘quick hit’ will turn into many more!

How often do you check on your friends and family via the News Feed? If the answer is: constantly, you are probably addicted to Facebook. Checking two or three times per day should be plenty.

Facebook and Twitter are both social networking sites where you can keep track of friends and family. A few years ago, Facebook tried to buy out Twitter but the deal fell through. Twitter wanted more money than Facebook was offering.

Since Facebook could not buy Twitter, they did the next best thing: they started a Twitter-style update system. Facebook subsequently became much more popular and gained new users.

Twitter does not make money yet. Fortunately, Facebook and Twitter still get along. Facebook may make another offer to purchase the less profitable site.

Twitter is extremely popular with users, and has a very large user base. Unfortunately it does not seem to know how to make money. Twitter does not turn a profit. If they can’t figure out how to change this, they may become desperate enough to take the next offer that comes along.

On the other hand, Facebook is making strong profits. It uses targeted advertising to generate revenue. The site may have enough money to make a very attractive offer to Twitter in the future.

It is very fun and easy to customize your Myspace page. You should make your MySpace profile as unique to your personality as you can. Your profile should represent you and your interests so it will be easy to find new friends that you have commonality with. Myspace is the number one social networking site, with great people so you wanna look good.

There are millions of people on MySpace, and there’s enough pre-made layouts and graphics to please everyone. It’s simple to make your MySpace profile unique (in the last paragraph I’ll discuss layout generators which allow further customization). No matter what your interests are, you will be able to find MySpace codes and tweaks to make your profile unique.

What do you like to do when you have free time? From the title, you know how much I love serving the community. ‘Half of me was born to serve others’, this was the description I have used before when I was asked to deliver a speech about my life as a volunteer.

As a fanatic of serving others, I have been a volunteer for over 10 years already. I enjoy serving other people as I am fond of watching those I served showing broad smiles to me.

I was 8 years old when I first had the experience of serving the needy ones. I could still remember how happy the elderly people were when I played the piano and my classmates sang Christmas songs to them. And they told me about they old good memories.

When I entered secondary school, I have more chances to serve others. I participated in different service programmes organized by various charities. Those times were marvelous. But, they are not the most fab parts in my life of serving others!

What do you usually do when you have free time? Sleeping? Playing online games? If you are thinking of what to do in the coming weekend, why not try to be a volunteer and to serve the needy ones in society?

I have 10 years experience of being a volunteer. You can call me as a ‘fan’ of serving others as being a volunteer brings me the greatest amount of happiness.

The first time I served others, I was 7-yr-old. I visited a home for elderly. I will never forget how happy the elderly people were when my classmates and I made performances and chatted with them. So impressive!

When I entered secondary school, I have more chances to serve others. I participated in different service programmes organized by various charities. Those times were marvelous. But, they are not the most fab parts in my life of serving others!

Everybody, Happy Easter! Easter is a very good break as since Christmas it seems that there has not been such a relaxing holiday, at least for me that is the case. It is really so great to have a nice little break from tonnes of work and to enjoy a few days without pressure. I am loving Easter! But does Easter only serve as a relaxation?

Thousands of years ago, God made his son Jesus Christ come to the world as his representative in order to save us from our wrongful behavior. Through his death and rebirth, Jesus sacrificed for sweeping the evilness of our sins away. “Feliz Semana Santa” is a Spanish phrase meaning “Happy Week of the God”. Even though people in Spain only have a holiday of three to four days, but they celebrate Easter for a whole week! (I think those who know how to prolong their holiday like the Spanish know well how to create ecstasy for themselves, right? Glad that they can feel happy even though their holiday is still, that short! So “feliz” they are!). But if I am not a follower of God, how does Easter relate close to me, except that it is a vacation period and that I can enjoy tasty Easter eggs?

For those who have concern with having privacy on MySpace, there are several simple codes that you can utilize to shield your identity from strangers. While many groups, models, and bands are on MySpace to promote their careers, some individuals still prefer to have their pages hidden and protected. Fortunately there are many ways to keep a MySpace profile private.

You may already be aware that you can set your profile on private by editing your profile settings. There are also codes you can find on MySpace resource sites that will hide your profile from anyone who isn’t your friend. One thing that people still don’t like about privacy settings is that anyone can still send private messages, even people who aren’t their friends. If you don’t like the idea of your contact table being viewed by everyone, there are codes you can use to keep it hidden as well.
