Today's Checklist

• "Go Have fun on Facebook" http://www.facebook.com
  
• Find 2 New Groups to join on Facebook
• Add the "twitter" application to facebook and MySpace.
  That way your Facebook & MySpace sites will be automatically updated by your twitter each time you change it (which should be often - 3+ times per day).
• Download digsby.com - it's a great all-in-one tool that will allow you to communicate with everyone in:
  - MySpace
  - Facebook
  - Twitter
  - Gmail
  - GoogleTalk
  - AIM
  - Yahoo
  - MSN, etc etc..
  So you don't need to login to each site to see if there's anything new, it will automatically notify you, and you can send messages, update your twitter, and chat right from the program.
