For the younger crowd IMO. Our live in "daughter", 19 years old, spends all extra time myspacing. The younger ones probably wonder what the point of SOHC is too.  8)

I don't think that myspace is supposed to have a point.  More or less it seems to be a way to keep in touch with all of your high school class mates and college classmates and so forth.

if it helps... elizabeth and i met on facebook.

i saw her avatar w/ her sitting on her red 98 vfr...  all the cute 110 pounds of her and i had to at least ask her to go for a ride.

well, there have been many rides since then and she just took me to monster jam tonight for valentines day!

myspace isn't all so bad... but you're damn straight i don't spend the time on there that i do on here!

There's a point to SOHC?  I just thought it was a place for otherwise lonely, forlorn people... ::)

actually, this is EXACTLY the point of myspace.     I use mine to just keep in touch with my best friends that I dont see often, and maybe find a new date.

It's a pretty good way to keep track of people from school or friends from elsewhere.  I always hear about pedophiles blah blah myspace blah blah, but I can't really imagine one would *meet* people through it...?  then again, I only use it to keep track of pple I know, so ... what do I know? ::)

I joined it to write a review for Amy Correia (VERY SExy and talented singer and story teller in song- Yabba dabba DOOOO)
But I can't figure out how it works.  Every once in a while I get an e-mail from a prostitute who wants me to buy her pictures, or something.  Please....

Never thought of looking up people I used to know.  Don't most people use an alias or nick-name?

Fuzz- I don't see any links under your avatar or anywhere else.
Dude- your 8 layers are showing!

I watched a Dr. Phil recently about a couple who got divorced over my space pages.

I don't get it either,  I don't really want anyone to call or talk to me anyway >:(
