MySpace will be the death of us all....

Okay, that was a rather melodramatic headline, but it got your attention. So Jenny said something to me today and again mentioned MySpace, which (while I know what it is) I haven't actually looked at before. I wanted to take a gander at Jenny's page, but I had to sign up first. So now I have a page at both MySpace and Friendster, which is redundant, if you ask me.

Why are these things so popular? For me, Friendster was a way to see what my friends from high school were up to. I was actually able to reconnect with a few people. After awhile, I gave it up. Now it seems people are migrating to MySpace, and a lot of people seem to treat it as an online dating service. Personally, I'd be a little worried about folks I meet online. I'm sure that most of the folks out there are good people, but you have to beware that 5% that likes to ruin it for everyone else.
