So I hate myspace more than I thought I did

[Tree]

MySpace gets more hits than Google/day, so you would think that would constitute better servers, optimized scripts, etc. But no, they use a horrible script and have a terribly-designed server infrastructure, hence their site is slow as anything.

Nerds never make good rants...

[Bruce]

So make a thread about it...

Oh wait.

I must have missed out on the MySpace fad... never been there myself.

[Tree]

I never had one either, but just brosing on other people's.

[GamePhreak]

I have one to see others' when they want me to see something. I hate how they're always experiencing technical errors and just overall poor quality, but most people don't care and they think it's normal for some reason.

Yea, that ---- always breaks down. I don't understand / can't stand it.

And this ----- messages me, and is all flirty...and like 'Hey, come see my boyfriends band play'. -----.

lol my blog is almost better then myspace :D
haven't even worked on it in almost a year

[tandoc]

Haha, myspace, I lol'd.

[krakjoe]

I never used it either .... I get a million automated emails a day from it though, come and see Joe Bloggs myspace profile and stuff ..... loada rubbish....

[themoose]

Never used it.. hardly even browsed it.

It gets more hits than Google?!? WHAT?!

[Jan]

It leaves me cold just viewing the few I have seen. Usually googling for hints on banned members ;)

Its sad seeing shops in Mebourne that advertise there MySpace page as there website

[Nug]

Are you sure that it gets more hits then google?? Why cant people just use msn to talk to there freinds?

[Tree]

Yeah, it gets more hits than Google. Heard that somewhere...

[themoose]

Actually, if you do mean hits (and not visits)... that's not too surprising. Look how much junk mySpace has attached compared to google. Google has 1 image, one page. The search pages have 3 images, 1 page.

Myspace - at least 50 items on the front page - and then tons of images and crap (music, videos, pages, css, styles etc) on all the others.

Myspace is such a disgrace of a website, I use to have one when i was younger, and i'd give an overall score of: 1(maybe even less) and they get more hits because alot of people go on it all over the world.

[GamePhreak]

Check Alexa. Last I checked, Myspace was third.

Exactly. If I were to choose a crowd to hang out with though, it'd be all the Google visitors. MySpace people are pricks.

I hate mySpace. I've never used it, never will.
All it is; exposure of privacy.

[BMR777]

I hate people that say they have a website when all they have is a stupid myspace.

I used to have a myspace - for about a day! What a waste of time. At the college I attend there are people on MySpace everywhere! In class and in the halls where they have public computers. Pathetic.

[themoose]

Bebo and the like are just as bad.


P.S. Does anybody know how to filter words in gmail?

[anhedonia]

Hmm. What's a good alternative then, I cbf making a site nowadays (no time!) but I'd like to start putting my city photography somewhere. Yea, lazy.

[themoose]

Buy a domain, get some free hosting, and buy a $5 script from tufat.com

~$12 is the mininum I'd pay to avoid myspace.

[Marky]

Hi5.com is my favourite website, I believe myspace is overrated

[iBrightDev]

all those community sites are stupid, but if you are a business, band, or uprising actor/model, then there is no better place to get free advertising to 113,612,596 people. :p also, if you search your zip code within a 20 mile radius, you can find thousands of people. how great is that if you are a business trying to find new clientel, or just started a new website, and want to advertise it (since you get banned on here if you advertise). So, yes, they need better servers, and a better site, but the fact is that there are so many people on there, that it can be a good free advertising method.
