Re: [microsound] I want myspace MTV



Yes but it will be second hand lunch because myspace stole the market
from Friendster (according to a friend of mine). 

The blogosphere is so bloated with bloggers and blog sites that it's
like trying to win a presidential election with two candidates from the
same party running against one from the other party. It simply doesn't
work.

Myspace got steam going before the blog bloat and I think the lesson
learned is that the vast majority of people willing to join such
communities as myspace do not care to read pages and pages about
peoples every day real life. They mainly wish to see a few pics and
hear some music and maybe read a sentence or two about some crap you
did. That's their formula and it worked.. go figure.
