Yeah, it’s like a playground for people with no imagination and too much time on their hands.  No, I don’t want to pretend to grow something in a pretend garden.  I fucking hate REAL gardening.  I click “ignore” for all those dumb requests.
 
But it has its uses – I also found the half brother I’ve never met on there just recently.

I can understand you on that Brendan.

Personally, I don't mind facebook but don't elet it become all comsuming.

All those fuckin app requests bug me to hell though. I ignore or disable them all.

I like it for keeping in touch with people & rediscovering old friends - far better than friends reuntied.

It's also been really useful for scuzzy & the bands I play in.

I agree with Elana about MySpace.

It's kinda grown out of control & just strikes me as a big sprawling mess.

Great for bands but again, it's now a big sprawling mess so bands seem to just whore onto other bands & no one really pays any attention to anyone.

Jukebox is handy though for sharing choons although don't Myspace 'own' all music submitted to it?

Or is that a myth? ("yeth?" ahh. bless the muppets....)

oh i loathe myspace. And I can't get rid of it. The email I use to log into it was my webmistress at killing-joke.com email which is not currently active so I can't go into that email to find the confirmation code to say I want to delete my profile. I tried the "contact us" thing, and sent them a message that way, and when I click send it says it will email me at the email listed to log in. uhhh not good email..... so yeah. Hate myspace

Whilst i concur with you both to a certain degree, i have to say that Facebook has kept me better in touch with some friends and allowed me to catch up with some that i had lost touch with, along with being imformed of some interesting things. Then there's Jonn Chapman and Fat(Jamie) Potanga's post which keep me thoroughly amused. I like it, sad...but true!
