State your opinion
I know someone who is in the process of creating a new website, like myspace, but safer. The concept is each member has to pay over a visa card $5 a year. This way, the owner of the website can make sure each member is who he says he is, and that children need parent permission to access the credit card needed to pay for a membership. The owner thinks this will make more kids be allowed to have an account because the parents will be informed about it, and it will be safer. Since you guys are the potential consumers of this new webpage, I'd appreciate your input on the subject. Would you use a website like this, and why or why not?

I think this wesbite sounds great, especially how safe it is. Parents and teens would be sure that they are much saver than any average website. However, I think part of the reason why people use myspace is because it is free. My parents are usually not comfortable about putting credit card informtation online, so that could be a possible issue with this upcomming website. How could the creators insure security when it comes to visa?
No, I don't think that I would use this website because someone could have lost their credit card and an older man can pretend to be someone he isn't; also because I am not on the computer that much so it would be pointless if I get one because my parents would basically be throwing away $5. Although, I do think that this website is good because it seems safer than myspace because anyone can have a myspace and, for free.
Yes, I know the money issue is a big factor that's going to effect the website. Why pay $5 when you can join myspace for free? Well because the weird pedophiles and stalkers aren't going to want to pay $5 to join a website when they could join myspace for free either.
No, I think this website is just as bad because the owner could just steal everyones credit card infomation maybe. Also because it is a waste of money because I am not on the computer that much.
I defintly would user this website it sounds alot safer than myspace but CMG that cant happen because in order to have a credit card you have to have the right information
It sdounds like a very good idea, if it goes through i would pay to have one. I like the idea that it is similar to myspace but safer. My parents don't let me have a myspace because they think its dangerous, but i'm sure they will let me have this. I hope it works.
pmp- the owner is my Godfather. I assure you he isn't stealing from your credit card.
I don't know if I would use this because number one you have to pay and number two some pedofiles would pay five dollars.
This site isn't exclusively for teens, so what would make the difference between meeting a pedophile on there or on myspace? Mysapce is free. If they're both a risk, I'd choose the free site.
