MySpace is a website where Internet users can come together to chat, email, play games, share messages and even find old classmates or family members. One way to share messages on MySpace is by using the comment box. MySpace members have found a variety of ways to use this popular tool--here are a few of those ways.

Function

The MySpace comment box is used for MySpace users to share and add comments to each other's profile pages. It is fun and simple to use. The comment box allows others to write short messages, leave fun images or special birthday or holiday greetings.

Features

There are a variety of ways to use the features of the MySpace comment box. Some features allow users to make their comment box invisible or place it in a scroll box. Members of MySpace can create text-only or HTML comments that use colors and images as well. Many websites allow members to create their own comment box to personalize it with their own style or color, and place it anywhere on their profile page too.

Size

The size of the comment box can vary. Some users can decide to leave as many comments as they want visible or delete the ones that they no longer want to appear. Websites that allow members to generate their own comment box can create the size or color of their box. There is no specific size that the comment box must be.

Benefits

The MySpace comment box allows users to leave quick messages to their friends. Leaving a comment this way is quicker and easier than sending messages through email. The comment box allows for simple messages such as "Hello," "Happy Birthday!" or "Call me."

Considerations

Be considerate when adding comments to other people's pages. Keep in mind that other friends or family members may be reading the comments if they have not been marked private. Stay away from obscene language and do not say anything to offend other users. Keep it clean, fun and friendly. MySpace should be a place where everybody can hang out without being offended.
