Media Advisory: Boston-Based Social Networking Expert, Steve Chazin, Available to Speak About MySpace Sex Offender Story

Posted on: Wednesday, 25 July 2007, 12:22 CDT

WHAT:

Yesterday, MySpace revealed that over 29,000 sex offenders were registered on their site, allowing them to search the profiles of thousands of potential victims. Social networking expert, Steve Chazin, Vice President at Tubes, a Boston-based social sharing provider, is available to comment on the implications of public social networking sites like MySpace which allow anyone -- including registered sex offenders -- to browse the public profiles of potential victims, and alternatives that allow people to share privately with friends online without exposing themselves to predators. Chazin will be able to discuss:

-- The steps that parents can take to teach their children how to maintain control over their social network profiles to prevent unwelcome predators.

-- How new private social networking solutions, like Tubes, allow anyone to create multiple "gated" communities which allow young people to easily share anything with known friends and family and protect their privacy and security.
