Digital College Network Live

What are a few things that most teenagers want? More freedom, more space to express themselves and, of course, more ideas about the coolest things to do in town! That’s what MySpace and Facebook are for, but now there’s a new kid in town – the Digital College Network (DCN).

DCN brings students everything from political news to sports, from musical performances of college bands to interesting lifestyle articles. It’s everything in one place that brings college students all over the United States together, for something bigger and better than they ever imagined in a social network.

As co-president Chris Esposito says, “It’s a network for the students by the students.”

DCN is already reaching millions of college students nationwide, through iPod applications dedicated to your specific school and city, through the Internet and TVs around campus. For more information, visit dcnlive.com. —Jessica Goodman
