UGH!!!! Myspace

Friday, June 2nd, 2006

So, I finally setup a myspace profile and added a few friends.  I have had an account there for quite sometime, only for the reason of spying on my oldest daughter.  She’s 16, can you blame me?  She knows that I spy on her and she makes sure there isn’t anything incriminating so its pretty useless, but at least I can monitor what pictures she makes public. 

I know the draw of myspace and I think the creator was a genius, but me being a techie kind of guy, I pretty much have come to the conclusion that myspace sucks ass!  I’m not going to go into why I think it sucks because you can find info like that all over the web.  Check here!

What I did find interesting is that not a single person from my graduating HS class is on myspace.  Now granted, they would have to actually fill out that part in thier profile so maybe they don’t want people to know where they went to high school, or just don’t give a shit.  Or, it could be that myspace search just plain sucks.  Ok, I know I said I wasn’t going to go into this but this is my blog damn it!  When I’m looking for someone on myspace I actually use Google because I can’t seem to find anyone using their search.  You would figure that having a good search would be a pretty big priority.  Also, the instant messaging has been broken forever.  If they aren’t going to fix it just remove it, everyone is used to it not being there by now.

Well, I can bitch and moan all I like but it doesn’t change the fact that I have succumbed to the devil that is myspace.  If you are one of the devil’s children like me feel free to add me as a friend.

Steven you rock!

The Sneeze is by far my favorite blog.  His post this week about Franklin from Charlie Brown is classic.

While most of the Charles Schulz characters hogged the spotlight by carrying blankets, playing the piano or just being filthy, Franklin flew under the radar keeping it real.

If you find this post amusing don’t miss "Steve don’t eat this", probably one of the best reads on the Internet.
