| Community Review: Ning is The Big Next Thing! |
| 2008-06-03 20:08:42 |
NingOriginally uploaded by life_changes I've been social networking on the internet since 1997 when I used AOL instant messenger to connect with locals upon moving to New York.When I returned home to California a year later, I started using Yahoo! Messenger to keep in touch with friends and family, and make some new friends as well. Over the years I've joined many online communities, message boards, and other social networking sites on many different topics, and funneled all of that activity to my page on MySpace. Now, I keep up with my family and friends on MySpace, and discuss topics of interest with online acquaintances on Yahoo! and all the other social networking sites that I've stayed with over the years such as iVillage, Google, and Tribe. Recently, I began to blog here on Blogger a...

| Socialite Showcase: Prince Harry |
| 2008-06-03 20:08:21 |
Here on the Online Socialite blog I strive to showcase socialites who have achieved celebrity status. In this post I plan to showcase an international celebrity who has become a socialite thru his personal charisma and captivating life. Prince Henry of Wales (commonly known as Prince Harry) is third in line to the British Throne and the younger son of The Prince of Wales and his first wife Diana, Princess of Wales. As a ‘royal celebrity’, Prince Harry is widely recognized for his role as a young prince and all aspects of his life attract a high degree of media attention. Having grown up in front of the eyes of the world, many people worldwide keep tabs on the different aspects...

| Blog Envy: Digital Inspiration |
| 2008-06-03 20:08:19 |
Digital Inspiration Originally uploaded by life_changes Hello there how are things? I hope that all is going well with you! Thank you for visiting the Online Socialite blog and reading this weeks post called Blog Envy. For this post I had the hard task of choosing a blog to follow up the awesome blogs that I have posted about already, Post Secrets and Lesbiatopia. I am an avid web surfer and constantly add new blogs to my bookmarks as I go. There are plenty of blogs that I consider to be favorites, but one blog that I truly do have a certain level of envy for is a blog called Digital Inspirations which can be found at Labnol.org. This is a blog that I envy for its high level of readership, active message board, and...

| Forum Find: AskMen.com |
| 2008-06-03 20:08:17 |
AskMen.com Originally uploaded by life_changes Last week for my Community Review I posted an article about iVillage for women – this week I decided to even things out and find a forum for men. Now I have to say that I have been on the internet since about 1997, and I have a great deal of online experience. When I decided to post a Forum Find for men, I realized that there were no message boards that instantly came to mind. You might think that because I am a woman I might not be in touch with the likes of a man, however I am a lesbian woman, and with this comes an appreciation of women that helps me to relate to a man’s plight somewhat. Since I’m a female I’ve never signed up as a member at any male website that I have surfed through, but a...

| Socialite Showcase: Angelina Jolie |
| 2008-06-03 20:07:47 |
If you look up the term 'socialite' on Wikipedia, you will find that it is someone with the "ability to dominate the social scene and use personal charisma to achieve prominence." This week I am going to showcase a socialite who has used her personal charisma to achieve prominence on a global level - Angelina Jolie. You can read a biography about her on Wikipedia here where you will learn about her career as an American film actress and Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Refugee Agency. Since her screen debut in 1982 (alongside her father, actor John Voight) Angelina Jolie has become one of the best known actresses in Hollywood - and one of the highest paid. Her personal life has gained worldwide media attention, a...

| Blog Envy: Lesbiatopia |
| 2008-06-03 20:07:44 |
Lesbiatopia Screen Shot Originally uploaded by life_changes The Lesbiatopia blog is a blog for lesbians that I totally envy because of their popularity and flair. Lesbiatopia is a blog that offers “a humorous and personal commentary on life, love, sex and society from the minds of modern-day lesbians”. They’ve recently been nominated for “The Bloggies” under the category of ‘Best GLBT Blog’, competing against other blogs such as PerezHilton.com. The winners will be announced in March but you know who my vote went to – Lesbiatopia! Lesbiatopia has also been nominated by The Lesbian Lifestyle for the title of Lesbian Blog of the Year for 2007. Voting begins on February 18th and you can read more about that here. Something else I like a...

| Forum Find: Launch.com Message Boards |
| 2008-06-03 20:07:42 |
Yahoo! Music Originally uploaded by life_changes Launch.com is a website that you may know as Yahoo! Music.I have been a fan of Launch.com for years, and when it became Yahoo! Music I was excited to find that my Yahoo! account once again allowed me access to must visit web features. The interesting thing that I want to bring to your attention in this post is the fact that this website not only offers the latest music videos and radio stations online, but they also provide access to message boards where you can discuss music with other fans. When you visit an artist’s page at Yahoo! Music, you will find a link that says ‘Message Boards’ which will take you to discussions about that specific artist. My favorite artists usually have message boards where you can discuss their mu...

| Community Review: The Future of MySpace |
| 2008-06-03 20:07:37 |
MySpace Home Originally uploaded by life_changes If you read my Community Review on Yahoo!, you’ll find that Yahoo! is most noted as a web directory, although it has developed a huge online community. The opposite is true with MySpace.com, the largest social networking community online, which is fast-growing into a web directory. Since joining the website in 2005, I have watched the membership grow, and can see how MySpace is developing into a web directory thru the addition of many features over time. Millions of people visit MySpace each day not only to connect with other people, but also to access the features that the site offers. The community features currently offered by MySpace include: MySpace Blogs...

| Forum Find: The MyLot Message Board |
| 2008-06-03 20:07:12 |
mylot 2 Originally uploaded by life_changes The MyLot Message Board is a message board that pays you to participate. After taking some time to surf the site a little bit however, I am finding that there are many more benefits to this board than that.Spending so much time on the internet, I have seen a handful of websites come to the surface that pays for users to post to their message board. The MyLot Message Board is the one paid message board that I endorse, because they really take message boards to a new level. When you visit the MyLot website, you might confuse the website for a social networking community, because the look of the site is not your mama’s message board. You can add friends and are given a pers...

| Socialite Showcase: Tila Tequila |
| 2008-06-03 20:07:09 |
PARALYZE_Music_Video_Shoot Originally uploaded by life_changes Have you ever heard of Tila Tequila?Chances are, if you have a profile on MySpace, or have otherwise heard of MySpace before, then you have probably heard of Tila Tequila. She is the ultimate Online Socialite, with a whopping 2,462,887 friends in her “personal network” on the most popular social networking website to date. Her influence on MySpace users is huge, and she is a big asset to the website, endorsing them just by being who she is. On her MySpace page, you can read that she never intended to set the record of most friends on MySpace, or to start what she calls a “Tila Phenomenon.” She has kept her fans posted regularly on her li...

| Community Review: The Truth About Yahoo! |
| 2008-06-03 20:07:07 |
Yahoo Home Originally uploaded by life_changes Yahoo.com is one of the original social networking sites online.But when Yahoo founders Jerry Yang and David Filo first opened the web site back in 1994, it was only intended for use as a web directory. I remember joining Yahoo! around 1999, to check out the discussion groups which where then referred to as Yahoo! Clubs. These clubs were not well known, but the people who did know about them inadvertently joined in and egged on a social epidemic known as social networking. Yahoo! built an infrastructure of community, and the people gravitated towards it. Yahoo! was ONE of the original online communities, but like I said, they didn’t start out this way. Launching as...
