Actually, Gina, I think the most frustrating thing about Myspace is how addictive your voyeurism gets with other people, not the actual concept itself.

I think you're right, Mick...that seems to be what's happening to me.

Actually, in my "spying," I've come across pages of people from middle school and even elementary, and it's absolutely amazing to see how they're doing and what they're like now. Things sure do change.

What are all these things? Chatboxes, MSN-like stuff?

It's kind of like an online profile, where you list stuff about yourself, and keep a "journal" (sort of blog-like).

I can't stand it. The only one I would even consider is Facebook, simply to keep together with college buddies who transfer or whatever. But I already do that with, I know, conventional methods like email and (gasp) the telephone.

Plus, I really don't see why anyone would give a shit as to what happened in my life on a daily basis, unless I was a major political/sports/musical/etc. celebrity. And even then, that's unnecessary.

"Well, this morning I had a good shite. A good, long shite. In the bathroom, a good shite. Unlocked my door, then locked it after going outside. Walked down the street to the local shop, bought a drink. Walked back home. Unlocked my door, then locked it after going inside. Sat down and watched sportcenter. Read a book. I died. The end." :p

Actually, they've grown controversial because some authorities troll them to catch illegal activity (I remember a story where they nabbed a bunch of drinkers in a town someplace around here for underage drinking, and they used pictures posted on the site as evidence :p ) as well as pedophiles seeking out victims through the profiles.

OMG, you're from the Stone Age.

That is sooooo interesting, can't wait to hear what else happened.

Three days later, I rose. :p

Truly one of the funniest things I have ever seen. When I saw which song he used, I pissed myself.

I FINALLY got into the whole myspace "phenomena"
