I honestly wouldn't update one or do anything if I had one.

The same thing happened with LiveJournal when I went to Europe. I got one to document my days and I only posted once. I can never get into these online journal things.

I swear to God, MySpace is addictive. They should make all rehab patients get one to wean them off the smack.

I'm the same way. I'm into it for about a week, and then I forget.

I have one, haha.


I have no friends and I know it :P
I personally know everyone of my Myspace friends.

I have a myspace.
But I normally get sick of it if I go on it more than one day at a time. I have a love-hate relationship with that popularity contest site.

There's this crazy conspiracy theory going around that Rupert Murdoch is deliberately sullying MySpace's reputation in order to pave the way for an ultimately censored Internet. Just so you know.

Anyway, I'm not big on posting my pictures on the Web (the only one I've uploaded is to show why my least flattering feature is my eyelids - and on that note, thank you again, Helen, for not looking like me), and I've looked over the shoulders of MySpacers at the library and they all seem to be doing insincere on-and-off affairs. So no, nothing I'd be interested in.
Do what you will; but I will hinder it if I may.

I only use MySpace for the music feature.

My myspace name is the same as my online handle everywhere. Look me up. I won't link because I guarantee that the comments my friends left aren't forum appropriate. XD

I like Myspace because it has allowed me to have more ease in keeping in contact with those that it would normally be difficult to.

I can send a message at any time, leave a happy comment for them, receive comments, post mini-blogs to let my friends know how I'm feeling, and the picture option is very nice. I get to see how people are looking currently and let my friends see how I look at the time.

It has just been a great help in letting reconnect with my friends from old towns that I thought I'd never hear from again.

I don't know about you guys, but I think Myspace -- although some people treat it as a popularity contest, others don't -- is a great social tool.

I got a myspace account just because so many people asked what my 'space name was. I never log onto it. It just has a picture and a fake address. I'm not a fan of telling people where I live. The only people I "keep tags" on are a few friends from high school and college. Then I only call them on the phone like once every few weeks if I'm bored. I know that a lot of people probably have pron on their profile or something but then again, what site with profiles doesn't? I hate it when the news anchors start bashing stuff. "You should regularly check your child's internet history, and talk to thier friends." Way to invade my privacy. Why don't you just tell them to read thier diary/journals?

A lot of my RL friends have Myspace, and I keep telling myself to get one so that I can get to know them better or something, but everytime I almost convince myself to get one I freak out again.

So yeah. I'm not going to get one any time soon. :P

Could not find. But to be fair I am lacking any kind of skills as to how to manipulate Myspace.
And I am so going to throw this sodding Mouse out a window in a minute. :x

I do indeed have a myspace. I like it. I can keep in contact with old friends from school and people I've met along my travels and whatnot. Yeah some people use it as a popularity contest but I just laugh at them.
