agreed.

but there are lots of ways to use myspace - i'm still getting friend
requests even though i've yanked all my content down from there.

i recently began working with one of those Balkan State web upstarts which
seek to steal myspace's thunder - it just makes sense that i do so, since
most of the types i hang with are already pretty tired of myspace.

i feel there's a bit of a neuskool cachet to dissing myspace - increasingly
i get emails from within it which state "if you want to continue talking
with me, here's my email address...".

end result is that i continue my conversations and collaborations without
myspace mediating me, but i keep a minimal presence there so that i'm easily
pinged.

and i'm having _much more fun_ at other URLs.

...i mean, this stuff is about discovery and experimentation, right?  [don't
answer that, i'm in too  good a mood right now]

again, i agree, both with the humor and sentiment.

and i'd like mine to have tasty chocolate bits in them, please.  :D
