MySpace is such a piece of shit

Does anyone ever wonder how it is that MySpace became anything even remotely popular? If you take for a moment that it has the most hideous and annoying pages ever, worse than those from the GeoCities days, the UI is ridiculously useless.

For example, try to login with the wrong password. It says, "YOU MUST BE LOGGED IN TO DO THAT!" I must be logged in to login with the wrong password?

You can also go in circles, endless loops even when getting around. I think this is secretly to keep grown ups out while little Suzy tries her hardest to see pictures of that cute boy who wants nothing more than to bone her by making her a friend on the site.

I've realized that the fundamental difference between MySpace and Facebook is that MySpace is for narcissistic attention whores, while Facebook, for most people, is used more to keep in touch with people. That's what I like about it, in that no one other than who you choose can see anything. I'm sure there are still people who have a thousand friends just so they can say they have a thousand friends, but I still reject requests almost every day from people I don't know.

I'm still amazed that MySpace has become popular.

They are pain the ass to work with to get ads and marketing pages up as well.

Don't worry, sooner then later Google will buy it up. They should make it better! ;)

I avoid myspace like the plague. The last thing I want is another place where people can bombard me with "friend" requests.

I do enjoy Facebook, although I don't use it to it's full potential. But Donna was able to post a lot of her Europe photos there which makes it so much easier to share. Considering I didn't get to see her for a month after she returned, that is cool.

When I get to re-doing CF, it'll handle photos in a very similar manner to Facebook.
