Yeah, they are. In fact "Tom" recently put out a site-wide bulletin asking for. NET developers. The site is a buggy unstable piece of crap codewise, and the fact that Mr DeWolfe writes this off as "we get a lot of flack from the blog-o-sphere but it's worked out well" doesn't surprise me. The article says myspace was founded in September , but the myspace. Before it was converted to a social networking site, myspace. So they changed their business plan. Not too surprising.

The goal of the competition is to create the ugliest possible MySpace page. Many of the entries are lame, but some are really pushing the envelope of CSS-based vomit. I just like the contest because it gave me a use for my MySpace account. If the site provides a lot of people with a service they like, who are you to say it isn't quality? Myspace is bullshit.
I fucking hate Myspace. I am sorry, but everybody on the site seems to love to fuck with their background adding music, pictures and other bullshit making it first of all impossible view to their page correctly, and second the annoy the living hell out of you by playing the same music track continuously.
Yes, I know you can "pause" the music, but so many people seem to fuck up their own pages that the text boxes are all screwed up and crap gets moved all over the page. A friend from college asked me join Myspace and hook up with him. My friends on Livejournal don't have this stupid problem.
Re:Myspace is bullshit. Saw a good comment recently, that MySpace is nothing new, just Geocities 9 years on. Consider how many Myspace users weren't born when the World Wide Web debuted and it's not surprising. I think Myspace will serve the same purpose as Geocities: get all the goofy gimmicky crap out of a future webmaster's system early so they develop decent content later. After all, they already teach PowerPoint in middle schools and I hope it does the same trick.
The web wasn't ready until Christmas - by then, a browser, server and website were ready. Yeah, but even those three things that made it a lot easier to use didn't catch on with the years old crowd. Hard to put my finger on why. Probably that they couldn't afford a NeXT.
That is an excellent observation. Score: 4 , Insightful. I am all for people experimenting with the web and making their Myspace page their own, but I assume that people would desire substance over style. If someone like me, a fairly experienced web and computer user, can't even navigate your Myspace page and complete a simple task like making a friends request what's the point in even having a page? It's the triumph of superficiality over usabilty and in that regard Myspace is far worse than any Geocities page ever was.
I guess I can't blame Myspace completely for this phenomenon as it seems to be an attitude that is pervading our entire society: it's better to look good than actually be good. Mspace seems to reinforce that message. Re:That is an excellent observation.
Well, why do you think teens are flocking to it in droves? You think they care more about substance than style? They and by "they", I don't mean Web 2. Mucking with layout with editors, tacking up animated GIFs and music bits is the not much different than putting stickers or writing band names all over their notebooks and lockers.
Sure, it's clunky but isn't everything at that age? But the real genius of Myspace is the friends system. Friendster missed the mark by making it all-inclusive if you're one person's friend, you're everyone's friend.
With Myspace, you have to actively collect them or be so popular that people are asking you. The friends system is not that much different than the little cliques that form in school-- and the ability to "deny" lets you deal out the sting of rejection with as much pain as in real life.
And the "top 8" is like choosing who to sit with at the lunch table forget the "interests" section, you can gather the most sense of who a person is by seeing who their best friends are.
Of course it's all very juvenile-- but it's for kids. And for adults who stil have that junior high mentality. Score: 3 , Insightful. Except not really. The whole "extended network" idea got screwed up as soon as Tom made himself everyone's friend by default. Then everyone on the site is "in your extended network.
Actually you just made a very keen observance when you say "you can gather the most sense of who a person is by seeing who their best friends are". This applies to people of all ages in all cultures. People will often pin you down with an inalterable first impression the second you walk in the room.
Image, therefore, matters a LOT in the world of social dynamics -- of course you need to be a fun, charismatic person on the inside but without a favorable image you will be swimming upstream in their eyes. Myspace is nothing like Geocities. Geocities let people design decent web sites. Myspace just forces people to use crappy web technology giving them no choice but to have crappy websites unless they send a significant portion of their life hacking the system.
That comparison is an insult to geocities. Neither do my friends on MySpace. Don't be friends with fucking idiots? Ummm, I think they forgot to mention someone Score: 2 , Interesting.

Among college aged kids, Facebook already is a lot more popular, at least from my experience, having just graduated from college. Facebook had already been at my college for a while by the time I graduated two years ago, but in my experience it's nowhere near as popular as MySpace among people with an interest in music, design, and the arts.
College kids I meet today still friend you on MySpace, but friend requests on Facebook are much rarer. At least here in New York. Maybe it's a regional thing? Nearly all people I know fall into one of three categories: 1 No membership on MySpace or Facebook - Most people who graduated college around the same time I did or earlier and didn't go to graduate school 2 Membership on Facebook but not Myspace - A handful of college classmates, LOTS of friends that were approx.

I wouldn't be, but Myspace is very flexible. You can make it into whatever you want it to be, in the long run, there is little reason for anyone to reject it.
Otherwise whatever site that comes along to replace it would have to offer something for people to jump to other than Myspace does have the aggregate of users, but it's not hard for users to transition over--it's not like people have to buy both a VHS and a Beta.
