If you are unfamiliar with the term "social networking," it refers to individuals coming together and interacting in online communities, such as Facebook and MySpace. The influence and popularity of social networking Web sites has spread rapidly in the last several years - not only for teenagers, but for adults as well.

As you might imagine, social networking is a hot topic on college campuses around the country, especially with its impact on intercollegiate athletics.

On today's edition of Mondays with Myles, NCAA President Myles Brand discusses the rise of social networking and how it can be both a positive and negative communication tool for student-athletes and athletics departments.
