I personally like MyChurch.org more than 4Marks.com Probably because 4Marks is similar to Facebook, while MyChurch is kind of a mix between Facebook and Myaspace.
I posted about 4marks today too. I read about it on the SQPN newsletter and heard about it before from various sites of people that have accounts, so I decided to join. My post is nowhere as thorough as yours at explaining what it’s all about. Good job.
I prefer myspace because mostly all of my online friends are people I know (in real life). So 4marks will be about making connections with new people. Sort of a new idea for me, but I figured why not. Adding one more social networking site to play around with might be fun. It doesn’t seem to have all the bells and whistles as myspace but it has some good points. I did try facebook and didn’t like it ,so since 4marks is very similar I’ll see how it goes.
You’re on 4Marks, too? I’ll have to look fo ya.
