Social networking sites make it incredibly easy to share your thoughts and aspects of your personality with others. But with this convenience comes the potential for saying something you might regret later. In this video segment from FRONTLINE: "digital_nation," two groups of girls describe how an exchange of insults over MySpace resulted in a physical fight at their school.
