If you are looking for a safer alternative, the beacon street girls company has a website that is monitored so that girls can't post personal info. it's at www.beaconstreetgirls.com -- i don't know if your daughters are too old for it, but just thought i'd share it with you.

Good topic and one that I am closely attached to. Kids give way too much information on MySpace and the Internet because to them it’s just there. They do not comprehend the scale to which their information is available to others. They don’t comprehend a world that stretched beyond the backyard or computer screen. Parents need to monitor. It’s as simple as that. If every parent even mildly monitored their child’s activity, there would be no cyberbullying and no Internet predators (well, successful ones anyway). Of course, we recommend our title <a href="http://www.pcpandora.com/" title="PC Pandora" rel="nofollow"> but there are many out there that do the trick. My one piece of advise is to not focus on restricting and filtering, let them do what they want – let them grow the way kids grow today – just KNOW what they are doing. Monitoring software can help take the guesswork out of it and provide you with answers. Hey,
