I think Myspace is a waste of time.
Good if it's used properly, it's a nice way to keep in contact with friends if you're careful.
Myspace is a personal choice. You choose your friends, and you can set it to where only your friends can view your profile. It's completely safe if used correctly.
well i think its a good way to hook up with a guy you have NEVER EVEN MET!
If you are tired of myspace but want a way to connect with artists and musicians and then you should check out www.putiton.com
If you are tired of myspace all together than you should probably leave your bedroom and go interact with the real world ;)
