no idea why people are complaning about Myspace and other social networks 1. don't add all the crappy *so-called* friends to which you wouldn't speak in real life 2. don't provide too many personal details if you can't live with what others make out of it there are lots of possibilities to avoid spam, friend requests from unwanted persons/bands, comments etc etc - simply be more strict and take decisive action. Don't blame such communities. Reconsider your own naivety and tap the full potential of the account settings (privacy, spam, .....) I have made excellent band contacts via Myspace which I wouldn't miss anymore. greetz Helmut http://www.myspace.com/project500 (don't add me!)
