MySpace

[cleolinda]

Y'all, the whole point of posting today was so I could ask this, and then I totally forgot:

Who among the fine folks here has a MySpace blog? I've had an account for a while and just not bothered to do anything with it, because... the interface is kind of weird and... crowded... and... I don't know the MySpace culture very well and... I feel lost.

(ETA: Yes, do please friend and I will friend back. IF I CAN FIGURE OUT HOW.)

*raises hand*

Mind if I friend you over there?

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Seriously, please do. It is so cold and lonely over there!

[anne-jumps.livejournal.com]

I do. I don't bother much with it, though.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it didn't look all that exciting to me, but I've got to try everything, you know?

[eyemage.livejournal.com]

i as well possess one...

use it for family and friends...

( although most use it for music adverts and hooking up)

[cattikins.livejournal.com]

Myspace owns my soul. I'm totally friending you over there.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Dude! What do you DO with it?

[waltzingalong.livejournal.com]

I added you on mine, although I've had it for ages and still am not entirely certain what it's for.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

See, exactly.

Apparently every teenager in the world except for me has one. I think a lot of people like it because it's really music-based, IMO. I don't particulary care about it; I do agree with your assesment that it looks crowded. I like my journals neat and anal-retentive. Clutter has no place in my heart.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think the music angle is making it look a lot cooler than, say, LJ, although for my money, LJ has been *awesome* for networking and grapevining.

[modpixie.livejournal.com]

i, too, have a myspace. but i don't quite know what to do with it.

[draconifers.livejournal.com]

I stry away from MySpace :P

[livesinthewalls.livejournal.com]

I have one. I'll add you.

People only use it for two reasons:

Bad hook-ups.
RP avitar base.

[roseredhoofbeat.livejournal.com]

I hate MySpace. It's like one big circle jerk. It just doesn't have the quality of posters like LJ has. Because all the cool people are still here.

I also don't like how you have to click like five different things to post a new entry, how ad-intensive it is, and that you have to sign-in at apparently random intervalls.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Okay, the signing in is driving me BATSHIT.

I figure--this is going to sound weird, but I kind of just want to have a presence over there that will redirect people to the places I really hang out.

I have one, I got it because I thought I could download one of Mraz's new songs, but I was mislead. But it entertains me, so ...

[kokopellinelli]

I love your LJ but don't comment too often...however, as I, too, have a MySpace that I'm not quite sure what to do with, I would like to friend you, if you don't mind.

And...holy-multiple-comma-run-on-sentence, Batman.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Go for it! I am cold and lonely over at MySpace. Also, I don't know what to do with it, either.

[kashmir1.livejournal.com]

I have a MySpace HERE (http://www.myspace.com/9904589) although I don't use it all that much. I can't seem to get into the whole MySpace culture. I think I'm a wee bit too comfortable here at good ole El Jay.

[virgulesmith.livejournal.com]

erm... I have a page. Its mostly for family and such. But yeah, its under Blythesland

[ambiguousreason.livejournal.com]

I've got one - I'll friend you. I still can't quite figure out what they're for, either, but they're apparentely trendy as fuck, so.. whatever. I've had mine forever; I usually tend to forget about it for long amounts of time.

[onstage.livejournal.com]

Friended.

And if you still need help, I can help you muddle throught the path of myspace.

[emerald-skies.livejournal.com]

Hi there, have been lurking for a while now and loffing your posts.

I'll friend you on myspace (as I'm sure a whole horde of others will)!! 'Allie (but you can call me God) ' is me, or the URL name twilightarcher. I'm not sure which will show up.

[girlalmighty]

Having finally remembered my password, I will gladly friend you. I, very creatively, am http://www.myspace.com/tyllisium. And no, I don't know what it's for either. I have to admit I got one because someone I had a crush on gave me their Myspace address. So.

feel free to friend

[kat-tigereye.livejournal.com]

i just got one about 2 weeks ago. the sad thing is that most of my friends have a myspace, but my best friend has a livejournal...

i'll post more serious stuff and write more on lj- i like the format better- but i see myspace as being more informal, just a way to connect. it's also a great help w/ publicity for local bands. there's no reason to feel lost :)

[faded-lilac.livejournal.com]

I too have a Myspace, and I have no idea why. Except that I'm apparently not very good at resisting peer pressure.
I'm http://www.myspace.com/fadedlikelilac, and I'm friending you.

[altairkrystona.livejournal.com]

I don't get myspace either, but my sister is obsessed...it is actually a great way to find old friends you thought you never hear from again. One more friend for you!

[goonie-freak.livejournal.com]

I added you to mine... I usually just use it to post pictures and to play dress up with it!

On a different note though....Are you going to do recaping for the new season of Lost? (because toward the end it lost some of its all out magic when you stopped doing the recaps! *tear*)

[palmetto.livejournal.com]

I never stuck around long enough to make an account. It seemed confusing and overly complicated, and all of my friends are here on lj.

[caffienerain.livejournal.com]

FRIENDED! Err.

Yes, friended. (http://www.myspace.com/caffienerain)

Myspace ruined my life.

[cattikins.livejournal.com]

God, me too (http://www.myspace.com/xsincerityx). Myspace has sucked my soul out through my fingertips.

[arayuldaiel.livejournal.com]

I have one, but mostly because all my RL friends were like "omg myspace is TEH ROXX0RS, get one!!111!" So, yes. When you get a friending request from some chick named 'ashleigh, emo child extraordinaire', that's me.

I don't exactly know what Myspace is for, either - it's pretty and it's an easy way to circulate chain letters, I suppose.
