Myspace (And Music)

Myspace seems to be moving towards becoming useless. The overall feel of myspace is so different from facebook and twitter. It seems like a good chunk of the people that are on myspace are marketing something (whether it is music, pictures, some new product, a get rich quick scam, or something like that). It is nearly impossible to get to a friend's page without being attacked by some "mafia" or a glitter greeting or a drink.

Myspace used to be the hot thing, and in regards to music on myspace people used to listen and or care. There has been such an explosion of these marketers who are utilizing this free advertising (by sending friend requests) that the average myspace user is becoming numb to anything on myspace. It almost seems like there are a ton of people trying to get other people to look at their page (who are also trying to get people to look at their page). I wouldn't say that marketing on myspace is dead, but it is not nearly as effective as it was when the site first started.

I feel like this same thing happened when email was newer. My mail used to be full of spam, where now there is almost no spam. There is hope for social networking...
