NO..NO..NOoooo! :crazy::crazy::crazy:

Resist being assimilated. Resist your biological uniqueness being added to the whole.

The power of the dark side is but an illusion and insignificant next to the force….

YourSpace is a trap for your creative genius to be sucked into and twisted – you will become Darth Murdoch’s pawn and lost to the path of the Jedi forever…:weee::weee::weee:

RREEESSSIIISSSTTTT!!!

LOL. Getting harder… (I may have to create a myspace page for NIN remix uploading…Will post it here if I do:wink:) I will still resist to the bitter end tho’…:wink:

May the force be with you always too FA :groucho:

LOL… me…

My Jedi mind powers will always be a match for Darth Murdoch and his Sith invasion of Cyberspace….raaaraaaraaa

And see you FA….Padawan indeed…:lol_crash I am a Knigget at the very least….:weee::weee:… I could even be small, green and unfeasibly athletic…:wave::cyclop_1::cyclop_1::cyclop_1:

nah, there’s no need for me to use murdochspace.

everything I want to say I can say here without excessive advertising etc … there’s a gallery here for pics, a place to share music etc…

I’d rather meet friends in real life if I can – I’ve been in touch with old and new friends through this board – but if I can’t visit people because of distance I’d rather send them an indepth message via email than have all my private conversations put across the internet for any random to read.

its alright for those of use who are mature enough to make use of the “free” resources (I can see why people use it for networking on some music scenes) but its also a way for “old media” to try and wrestle back a lot of the power the Internet has given to more underground culture.

Murdoch is giving away those resources because every few seconds robots read all the myspaces; and compile a list of what people are talking about.
this info is then used to show what the trends are to potential advertisers.

Even then I’m not sure how profitable myspace actually is. It must be more of a money pit than the Sky TV channels and a fucking expensive way of plugging an already well known brand.

BTW this is from Murdochs own corporate spin outlet!

In one fell swoop, we have paid for two-thirds of our Internet acquisitions,’ said Peter Chernin, President of News Corporation…(on) the multi-year deal for Google to be the exclusive search and keyword targeted advertising sales provider for Fox Interactive Media Web properties, including MySpace.com. Listening to the joint conference call for financial analysts and press, however, the lack of enthusiasm for the $900 million deal was palpable. The profitability of MySpace was questioned, as well as the quality and salability of its advertising inventory.
By seeming to use the Google revenue share deal to ‘justify’ its billion dollar plus investments in Web properties, News Corp did not provide a ringing endorsement for the stand alone viability of its Internet sites.

I Agree,I have just about everything I need here as far as music and networking goes plus its controlled by real people whom I like rather than some corporate lizard wanker:groucho::groucho: AND We have a Cilla Black Robot!:laugh_at::laugh_at:

Sorry Angel:flowers::flowers::flowers::flowers::flowers::flowers::group_hug:group_hug:group_hug:group_hug

bear in mind you can also put the myspace ID’s in your profiles (angel has done this) – that way they appear on every post you make rather than threads which are eventually pushed to the bottom by other stuff!

TBH myspace is probably still run by reasonable people who are into music etc – but – one thing I would say is don’t get too attached to it.

Its a commercial business, not run out of goodwill and Murdoch must have set a timescale by which it has to make money.

If this doesn’t happen via advertising, it will either become a pay to use site or be downsized (such as bit rates of music/video being lowered, features removed, charges for high traffic sites).

All this happened before (albeit on a smaller scale) during the last dot-com boom.
