Social life in college does not only consist of parties and students hanging out with one another. Whether students want to admit it or not, they spend a lot of their time not only gossiping to each other but also gossiping on the net. Social-networking web sites are becoming more and more popular; such as the well-known Facebook.com and Myspace.com. In addition to these popular sites, the campus gossip site JuicyCampus.com has become known as well.
JuicyCampus, home to nasty school gossip, dries up discusses the termination of
JuicyCampus.com. Due to its founder, Matt Ivester, experiencing a downturn in the economy, the site has finally come to an end; pleasing most and upsetting a few."We're very happy," said Erika Lowe, vice president of the student government at Western Illinois University..."
The site was bo guarded with cruelty and hatred. Most colleges were asked and urged to block the site from their campus networks.
With the removal of JuicyCampus.com, colleges campuses can now undergo a feeling of peace.
I definitely agree with this news story, this site was ridiculous. I can't lie, it was interesting to read the different posts, but the topics were outrageous. People went overboard and I feel that it became too much, even for the net.
The reporter should have interviewed students that are for JuicyCampus and placed their testimony in the article.

I think you chose a good topic for your beat. It will keep people coming back, being that juicy campus was a pretty popular site to visit. I can't wait to hear more about it!
I agree with how you feel about this site. I recently learned about it last semester and I think it's horrible. Though some topics are funny others are just down right nasty. It's sad that people will waste their time on gossip sites like that just to bash other people. Good job summarizing the website and what it is!
This is a great blog idea that every student on campus will be able to relate to.
Your photos really add to your post.
