The internet is a place of trends. Remember back in around 400 BCE when LiveJournal was the hippest website on the internet? Then Myspace? Facebook? Twitter? The latest contender at passing internet crazes is one "Formspring". Formspring allows for every teenager and college student to be a potential journalist by asking and answering anonymous questions. And that's pretty much it. However, despite how simplistic it sounds use of the website can be entertaining and addictive. I personally hold a joint account with my trio of roommates and we collaborate on hilarious answers to the questions. We take on the persona of a high brow news agency trying to get the news to our readers. Though the site provides a vast quantity of entertainment, it can naturally be the breeding ground of anonymous "cyber bullying", with individuals with low self esteem leaving crude remarks on other people's accounts. However, the entertainment value is often worth this remarkable risk. In short Formspring can be an interesting internet experience, if you handle your questions with a hilarious personal. Totally.
