I've always been a trend-setter.

What a compelling news article. Can I have those 30 seconds back please?

I'm not sick of it. I always check the link of a page before I click. If it says, "myspace.com", then I don't have to click it.

so 15 good months followed by one bad month = ByeSpace? still looks like a pretty good trend to me.

It ain't over 'til Ric Romero does a hard-hitting report on "this newfangled internet service called 'MySpace'".

Meh, it is still the best softcore porno site on the web.

Never underestimate the number of stupid people on teh intarwebs

She dodged the question, but by the time she walked back to her dorm, the student had already found her on Facebook and tried to add her as a friend. Ms. Miller says it made her feel uncomfortable that a near-stranger could track her down so easily and so quickly, thanks to Facebook. (The man knew her name and would have been able to search for her on the site.



I hope he doesn't discover phonebooks or 411.com.

Heres an idea. DON'T add every stranger that wants you on their "friends" list.

i use it for my kickball team.

/seriously. we have a game on saturday, all are welcome to come.

"MySpace says it has incorporated technology to identify and block spammers."

Wonder if they also said they invented the sun and a car that runs on used cat litter?

I don't mind MySpace. Yes, I'm on it. Helps me keep in touch with old friends who live in other states and cities. If you don't want' 4000 "friends" clogging up your time, the solution is quite easy. Don't add them in the first place and don't log in every 15 damn minutes.

I've always hated MySpace, to the point where I refuse to open links to MySpace pages.

lower growth rate != fewer subscribers

O RLY?

/thanx 4 the add!

That reminds me of this little gem:


Who's gonna teach you how to dance?
Who's gonna show you how to fly?
Who's gonna call you on the lame-dope-smoking,
Slackin' little sucker you are?

Who's gonna get you from behind?
Who's gonna ring your little bell?
Who's gonna con you into buying a television set revolution they sell?

When are you gonna blow the game?
When are you gonna blow the screen?
When will you tell them that the crap doesn't last
And you found a way to make your own dreams

The crap doesn't last and you found a way to make yourself scream

Well I died a million times
And I picked my culture well
And I built myself a gate
They can all now go to hell

I'm never gonna work another day in my life
The gods told me to relax
They said I'm gonna be fixed up right
I'm never gonna work another day in my life
I'm way too busy powertripping
But I'm gonna shed you some light

Get down!

Who's gonna teach you how to dance?
Who's gonna show you how to fly?
When you get tired of the crap baby move over here and maybe buy some of mine

I'm never gonna work another day in my life
The gods told me to relax
They said I'm gonna be fixed up right
I'm never gonna work another day in my life
I'm way too busy powertripping
But I'm gonna shed you some light

I'm never gonna work another day in my life
The gods told me to relax
They said I'm gonna be fixed up right
I'm never gonna work another day in my life
I'm way too busy powertripping
But I'm gonna shed you some light

I'm not even sure what myspace is.

The apparent decline of users who list bands like Taking Back My Chemical Fall Out! At the Disco has made myspace useful again.

I use it for networking with some other writers and catching up with friends who moved out of state now.

Nothing more annoying than people that post entire song lyrics.

Here is a wacky idea, only mess with locals. I know most of my MySpace pals and the rest are in the area. Of course I only have like 30 friends.

But I have to say, if you ever get the urge to see some naive 18 year old girl post her ass in a thong on the web, no better place then MySpace...

One day after dinner, for instance, a fellow student approached her outside her dining hall and asked for her number. She dodged the question, but by the time she walked back to her dorm, the student had already found her on Facebook and tried to add her as a friend. Ms. Miller says it made her feel uncomfortable that a near-stranger could track her down so easily and so quickly, thanks to Facebook. (The man knew her name and would have been able to search for her on the site.) The experience was "really creepy," Ms. Miller says.

Fool! You should have just poked her first.

MySpace is going to release a "Greatest Hits" album.

So this retard accepted every single friend request she got, then decided that the site sucks because of that?

Myspace, much like Fark, is simply what you make of it.

Heres an idea. DON'T add every stranger that wants you on their "friends" list.

Actually, that's exactly what I was going to say. Personally, I can't really say anything bad about Myspace, I have reconnected with over 30 people that I have not seen in years (12 years in one case). I use Myspace for finding friends I already have, not making new ones, that just doesn't make sense.

Nobody posts there anymore. It's too popular.

Wow... That was an incredibly stupid story.
In fact, I think the only thing dumber than the story were the people they interviewed in it...
I want my 5 minutes back.

A) I believe myspace allows you to decline friend adds...
B) There is likely a setting to not allow anyone but your friends to post comments
C) If people want to use MySpace...good for them...I don't use it but I have checked it out in the past and even created an account to message an old friend from college I had not spoken with in a long time.
D) People who put a lot of personal information on their MySpace account should be automatically put on the next list of could be Darwin Award winners...

Now where are all the perverts gonna find their 13 year old dates?

if you feel the need to announce yourself leaving an FARKING WEB PAGE and only just now got "what it takes to leave" you have some other serious problems to address.

and if you need that many "friends" to validate yourself it's pretty god damn sad.

/loves myspace
//friend...companion...lover.

You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.

Of course, if your a farking idiot, you won't even know what to do with the damn ear in the first place.

TheNewJesus: But I have to say, if you ever get the urge to see some naive 18 year old girl post her ass in a thong on the web, no better place then MySpace...

And you want that same image live in your livingroom there is no better place than yahoo!

Man imagine what a yahoo commercial that could be

im very proud to say i've never had a myspace page, and im never browsing myspace either... except for the occational visit to Coheed and Cambrias.

fark myspace

Anyone still use Friendster?

Didn't think so.

Internet trends come and go. Myspace is next. One day the financial types will figure that out before investing $$.

and of course these sites are losing visitors...Have you seen how many sting operations Dateline has been doing of late?

I'm sick about hearing about idiots doing stupid things that involve myspace.

Well on the other hand, myspace threads on Fark are always fairly entertaining. But there's no shortage of idiots in the world to use as Fark fodder so we're hardly dependent on myspace for that.

One day a myspace pimp/prostitute operation will be uncovered. And Fark's reaction will be "aw shiat, I missed out!"

// Gladly missing out

If you don't like it, cancel your account. Just like whiny assclowns to biatch about a free service.

The guerrilla marketing has driven away James Kalyn, a 30-year-old technical writer in Regina, Saskatchewan.

If you are over 25 and you have a myspace/facebook, Its time to go to a bar people. So get off your lazy ass' and go get drunk at a designated area. I am sure you will meet just as many people and these people will be real. YAY! Making friends in real life is more fun than internet friends, yay!

correction to TFA, the typical comments should have said "your beautiful"


(cuz, like, web-chix usually mess up contractions until their in labor)

Eat this, myspace.

Hopefully it will go the way of flash mobs.

im very proud to say i've never had a myspace page, and very proud to say im never on it browsing either. except for the occational look at Coheed and Cambria's page.
