With 102 million people on MySpace (accurate statistic) and its popularity booming all over the world, one question remains.
How many of you VE'ers are on it?

Come on now, dont be shy. Make sure to send me a message and tell me how horrible my songs are. -----------------------

I made one. I can't delete it because I can't access my old email, so it's just a blank slate. -----------------------

So far i've had 2 young VE ladies add me. This is either because:
1) The men are intimidated by my musical talent and dashing good looks.
2) I can't keep the ladies away from me.
3) A combination of 1 and 2.
But seriously. Im sure a lot more of you have one of these accounts. Maybe its the time. It is midnight in the east coast after all.

I have to admit I'm a myspace addict. A friend forced me to get it, I got hooked, then forced the rest of my friends to sign up.

I had one, but I'm never home enough to become addicted to anything else besides the VE
Plus, one of our teams receivers missed practice once and used "Someone hacked my MySpace" as an excuse. If Coach finds out any of us have one, we run miles.

"The way of war is a way of deception. When able, feign inability; when deploying troops, appear not to be. When near, appear far; when far, appear near. Lure with bait; strike with chaos. If the enemy is full, be prepared. If strong, avoid him. If he is angry, disconcert him. If he is weak, stir him to pride. If he is relaxed, harry him; if his men are harmonious, split them. Attack where he is unprepared; appear where you are unexpected. This is victory in warfare; it cannot be divulged in advance. Victory belongs to the side that scores most in the temple calculations before battle. Most spells victory; least spells defeat; none, surer defeat. I see it in this way, and the outcome is apparent." -- Sun Tzu

A friend forced me to have a MySpace a while back. I never looked at it since, I'm with Rogueboy on this one. I have no desire for social acceptance and don't want any damn pseudo-friends. There's too many people on MySpace, I refuse to do anything that a multitude of normal people do. I have my own damn website and it's better than any MySpace, even though it's new and has virtually nothing on it. And while we're at it go to http://www.demonbaby.com/blog/2004/04/first-annual-myspace-stupid-haircut.html
Later.

Well, I for one think myspace is a waste of time and effort. Your friends aren't online, they're in real life. What ever happened to old fashioned phone... or getting together? Personally I think it's creepy, posting all your information.
Plus, I don't have enough time to put anything on a website, VE is the only thing I can do. I say if you want to get to know me... Meet me! :P -----------------------

i don't think she meant to do that O.o
www.myspace.com/jenfiles is what she meant.
Well, myspace for me is just a boredom cure. I don't put up any of my personal information and I only put up the people i know as my friends. Hence, you guys. The telephone is only a last resort when someone isn't online. Myspace hasn't replaced hanging out with friends...Although the people who go on there for dating purposes have one to many screws loose.

Just for kicks and giggles. There's lots of myspace-like sites: facebook, blah blah, blah blah, etc.
Think I'll restart mine. Already got JenKnight as one of my friends. Guess I should start reinviting more. Used to have a good numer (13!!).

Mm, Toki makes a good point. Nothing I've put up on my page is deeply personal, and the only people I've added to my list are RL friends, and a few of you guys from the VE.
It's just a fun, semi creative waste of time
