Anything and everything goes in here... within reason.

Just because it 'sucks', doesn't mean its an evil tool of the devil...


But it does, indeed, suck!

I wouldn't despise it as much if more people used it to actually keep in touch with people, instead of to take ugly pictures and get as many "friends" as they possibly can.

I like MySpace. :) It's fun to make your page pretty and keep in touch with friends. lol I've even found some old friends from school, but I haven't worked up the courage to msg them yet. haha My sister keeps commenting on mine and adding more and more sparkle graphics. She's addicted to those things! lol

I also use MySpace to look up into tv shows I like and such. Grant from the Ghost Hunters show friended me and it turns out he's really cool. :) There are some funny videos on MySpace, too, and I like to randomly search through them. lol

I have this theory that MySpace is taking over the world. I won't go into detail.

Aside from that, I find it overrated, and most of the people that use it make me want to set myself on fire and leap into a pit of ravenous alligators.

It's a good concept, the whole idea of allowing bands to show their stuff online in a big musical community. What it's evolved into is more annoying to me than anything else.

I like Myspace as well... if only for the bulletins. Surveys are fun!
As for who's reading my info, well, I don't care. They can come and get me :P

DON'T DO IT! I've tried it before. It doesn't solve the problem and it hurts like heck.

In theory, the site is a good idea. It's a great way to keep in contact and keep your friends up to date. In practice, however, there are too many idiots who give it a bad name. I still think it's nice.

Honestly, this site is a site for people [From what I've seen] who like taking "emo" poses. I can't count the number of times I've been linked to a random Myspace with some stupid chick posing like she's about to kill herself.

But that's not due to the actual way the site works. That's because there are too many people who do that and give the site this emo-depresive reputation. However, I think the actual concept behind the site is a great idea and I wish I could have thought of it first. (So I'd be rich like Tom probably is. =P)

Yeah, the site and the idea behind it isn't bad it's just about 90% of the teenage population that uses it. (my mom uses it, and I would like to think she isn't doing "emo" poses on it... very much so) Then again, it's the fate of any site on the web that's as popular as MySpace to be littered by the masses.

We don't use MySpace here. We use something kinda similar called Nexopia.
