I attended an interesting panel at SXSW09 on what teens want in a web site. U nfortunately there were not many tangible strategies offered that audience members could take home and implement from this panel.  However, it was interesting to hear teens talk freely about how they use the web in general. Since there wasn't an abundance of specific leaning to take back with me, a few interesting comments are paraphrased below for your knowledge and/or enjoyment.

  1. "It's funny to see my teachers on Facebook; it shows you that they are really people too."
  2. "Me and all my friends use MySpace and not Facebook, its way cooler."
  3. "Us high school kids have so much drama in our lives. It's like, why am I not in your top 20 friends on MySpace? That's rough."
  4. "I use Wikipedia most of the time for my research papers."
  5. "Internet explorer? Ew please, I only use Firefox."
  6. "Me and my friends all just looooove Facebook Mafia Wars! (Cough, Cord.)"
  7. "Wait, an RSS what?  What happened?"
