Social Networks for Research

Social Networks: Handy Research Tools , TVC Alert (Oct 24)

People reveal a lot about themselves through MySpace, Facebook and the others. Genie Tyburski also points to an article on use of social networks by a law firm -- MySpace Is a Treasure Chest for Cases.

It's quite amazing what can be found: "Diebolt said an eyewitness recently identified a first-degree murder suspect in a group photograph posted on MySpace. Such social networking sites have also been helpful in prosecuting gang-related crimes."
