Picture from here
Between setting up the blogs, playing the Myspace game Heroes, and
tracking down alumni for band on Facebook and Myspace, I've spent a
huge chunk of time on the social networking sites of the top tier. (If
there are any alumni on secondary tiered social networks I will find
you eventually.) Traditionally I have always held a strong hatred
towards Myspace particularly. My most commented line about the site has
been "Myspace, making the Web 2.0 looklike the web from 1996). Myspace
has gotten better, but it is still downright ugly, clunky, and mostly a
walled garden. I don't like - and no recent usage hasn't endeared me to
it. I now have about 8 pages of email communication in Myspace (2 pages
in Facebook) - that I have no method of saving, archiving, and
retaining. Do you know how much I hate that? I'm someone who wants to
save all his data forever, and thanks to the walled garden scenario
it's trapped. Maybe I'll get lucky and it will eventually be freed. On
the plus side my blog has been getting more hits, so I can't complain
about that. Exposure the whole yadda yadda about getting yourself out
there, I'm doing it. I have been doing it for awhile but lately
actually actively doing it. We'll see, maybe Myspace will still self
impload and take out the west coast. If it takes out the whole west
coast we will know never to make such a monstrosity again. Original
