Ever heard of Hi5.com?

I received an invite to join this network from someone I believe is a visitor of SF. Now, I don't want to turn off members of my fan club (;)), but I'm quite unsafe with social-type networks.

I'd like to know if this Hi5 thingie is a spyware spreading network or if other folks here use it without too much trouble. I have no idea how it works.

I hope it's not a spyware speading network, because my girlfriend is there all the time (when I'm not in the computer that is.) :D

Anyway, I haven't experienced any problems, so I think it's safe.

Thanks.

It looks like a teen/girl chit/chat service. Not my kind of stuff. I find forums more convenient. I'm a poor "live" communicator. My old brain needs time to convert the stuff I think into words. Real-time translation was only at the experimental level in my generation.

This is the first I've heard of it too. Seems like an odd site to meet friends, but what the hell do I know. 8)
