Websites

I have noticed that in our generation there are many different websites that are somewhat school related. People use these websites to complain about school, stay linked to school friends both previous and current and to even rate their professors. These websites were not created by the schools, they were brought about by students. Some websites even require a school email address to register with them, or at least they used to. I even have a professor that said if she ever found any videos of her on youtube that she would fail us all. I think that having these kinds of websites is a great thing and that it encourages people to go to school so they have more in common with the rest of the people on these sites. This whole internet exchange thing I know was not around when my mom was in college. Is it going to be played out by the time our kids are in college? Are professors going to take comments on rating websites personally?
Here are a few websites that I have heard about:
www.ratemyprofessor.com
www.facebook.com
www.myspace.com
