MySpace sellout

the entire MySpace.com phenomena has never sat very well with me.

don't get me wrong on this point, all i'm stating is that the premise and flow of the site has never clicked with me. if you use it, good for you -- but sleep tight knowing that Rupert Murdock now owns your ass:

"...Intermix's other web businesses include sites with such names as grab.com and flowgo.com. Their addition to News Corporation's existing Web site operations will nearly double the company's Web traffic in the United States to 45 million unique monthly users.

The deal comes immediately after the formation Friday of a new unit within News Corporation, Fox Interactive Media, which will house Intermix as well as sites like foxsports.com, foxnews.com, and fox.com.

"We see a great opportunity to combine the popularity of Intermix's sites, particularly MySpace, with our existing online assets to provide a richer experience for today's internet users," said News Corp.'s chairman and chief executive officer, Rupert Murdoch."


gross.

I totally agree with you! The only reason I got on is now the only reason I really stay on. My friend Justin was really into it and talked me into signing up. He is still one of my friends on my list and always will be. It's almost kind of ridiculous the way I hold on to him but it still hasn't been very long. As a matter of fact I deleted everything in my profile and all my friends (except Justin) and tried to tell people I was through with it. The next day I had a few emails and friend requests from the friends I previously had so I said what the hell, I'll keep it going but I can't promise I will be an avid user.

This has nothing to do with anything...just thought I wouild share...
