My parents say that myspace is to dangerous, but my friends all have myspace, and I'm not stupid enough to put important information on there, so what's the general opinion on how safe it is?

You aren't giving out your address or phone number. You should be fine.

You're myspace account can come back and bite you in the butt.
I have a friend who lost a job because she put some, well......"pictures" of herself on her myspace page.
A company she was interviewing did a background check on her and came upon her site and these "pictures" (you can imagine what the subject matter was) and passed her up. She didn't get the job.
This stuff will follow you, even as you get older.

It's safe, as long as you don't do something stupid like you were saying, such as an address or even a phone number. Still listen to your parents, but try to negotiate with them and see if they'll let you do it and let them know (in a mature manner) that you're aware of the dangers and safeties of myspace. They might let you back on.

Basically on a blog, u write about what u feel like! About ur family, ur hobbies, ur school, studies, ur job, ur children, ur spouse, ur political views, or celebrities or maybe promote ur business-anything u want!
Due to the easy availability of online publishing tools, even an average internet user can start a blog.
so the question is do u have sense enough to not put up any sensitive info on ur blog?
if u do, welcome to de world of blogging :)

Not Blog ...
You sound underaged ... trust your parents. There are way too many bad things that happen to young female bloggers, especially on Myspace. You are not missing anything. Trust me.

I don't blame your parents. Why not use http://freewebs.com or http://blogger.com/start provided by Google. I got to warn you though, Blogger.com dosen't isn't really concern about which users catergorize their adult sites.
