Social networking sites enable users to connect with people from all over the world.  The sites allow easy presentation and translation of words, pictures, video links, htmls, and games.  I believe this is what draws people to the sites, they are easy to use.  In modern times, people want everything as soon as possible.  Facebook and Myspace provide their users with just that, speedy communication.  Fast communication fosters relationships with people who you wouldnt necessarily talk to if you had to call thim on the phone or write them a letter.  They also found success by centering each users homepage around the user. (likes, dislikes, profile pictures, favorite quote). People like to think they are in the center, and take pride in what they post on their page.
