It used to be such a nice online community--until "they" started logging on with their unruly music embeds, flashy backgrounds, and slang-filled comment posts. Luckily, a little ways down the information highway, was Facebook - a nice, clean site inhabited by up-scale college graduates.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.thegrio.com/2009/09/is-there-really-a-racial.php"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.thegrio.com/img/4C890278-9124-4C86-B98E-365687049D84" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.thegrio.com/2009/09/is-there-really-a-racial.php"><P>If this viewpoint rings with familiarity, it is because we are accustomed to seeing affluent, white Americans leave environments with a rising population of minority residents. Indeed, the history of many American inner-cities is characterized by just such phenomena of "white flight." This comparison begs the question: was there a digital "white flight" from MySpace to Facebook?</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.thegrio.com/2009/09/is-there-really-a-racial.php"><I>MySpace has become the "ghetto" of the digital landscape.
