A close friend from my WoW guild works there, we were just talking about how his company owns/used to own MySpace.

I feel like crap...Back 3 or 4 years ago, I saw this concept of blogging, and I was like, "man, that'll never take off. Its soo stupid."

Guess I was wrong.


Dude, I had the idea of Friendster when I was back in School. If only I dropped out to write it then. Bastages.

"I'm the real Friendster."

What did they really buy? Who owns the content?

If everyone with a site on MySpace said screw this, could they delete their personal content and leave fox with just some servers and a name?

Great. Fox News on MySpace.

Are the Republicans going after the kids now? They always complain so much about liberal bias in the school system.

Dude David, for some odd reason I checked your MySpace earlier and I was like "WTF?! A GIRLFRIEND?! OMGWTFNOWAY!!1!"

And now I see this? What am I to you? A piece of meat you can throw to the side whenever a better cut comes along? :(

Hopefully they improve the uptime. Seems like every other night a portion of Myspace is down.
