MySpace and Salsa Peer Pressure

Most of us are familiar with the free social networking website called MySpace. If you have not heard of MySpace you are most likely living in a cave. You either join MySpace because you are interested in expanding your social network, promotion (music, business, etc) or you have succumb to peer pressure.

I admit that I fell victim to 'salsa peer pressure' when my dance partner Chimere asked me to join MySpace. I resisted at first but in the end I gave in and created my page. At first you have not clue what to do with your page other then filling out your profile description, but after awhile you get used to the interface you and start posting pictures, video clips and custom layouts to match your personality.

Feel free to check out my profile. You may recognize some of my friends, some are from the salsa community and I have a few of the internationally known dancers (Josie Neglia and Eddie the Salsa Freak for example).

I would encourage everyone to check out this free service, it has kept me in contact with friends and help build stronger friendships. With my busy lifestyle, MySpace makes it easy and convenient to stay in touch and it keeps my cell phone bill from getting out of control.
