5th Block English 9 - Are you the MySpace generation?

Your generation has been called the MySpace generation. It is obvious that you spend much more time online than previous generations, mainly because you have more access, more technology, and maybe more desire to sit at a computer screen than most others. Is this true? Do you resent that label? For you personally, how do you see yourself as a writer in the online world?

Specifically, respond by explaining how much and where you write online. Do you chat, IM, surf, what? Remember, no full names. First names only.

Then, once you've posted your original piece, go back, read others' posts, and reply to at least one other student's writing.
