MySpace Revisited

March 20th, 2008

I’ve never had much fun with MySpace, but i thought i’d re-visit the tired old dog and see if their recent raft of changes would entice me into becoming more involved…..

I tried updating my profile first but the UI is still as messy, the photo uploader crashed on me and when i did manage to get a photo up it distorted my face to fit its parameters so i now look like Gollum. Not a good start.

For inspiration i went fishing around other people’s profiles and some of the new featured celebrities they’re now pushing on the homepage including a strange mix of Katie Price and Rihanna. Hmmm not the best.

However that was the tip of the iceberg, a strange thing always happens when i open a myspace page, my web connection drops out. EVERYTIME. Now is this because there’s too much crap on people’s pages? Does my ISP drop my bandwidth because it thinks i’m downloading heavy content? Or does Tiscali just hate MySpace too? Whatever it is it’s the only site the does this everytime guaranteed. So i gave up. That’s the end of my MySpace experience for now.

So Tom you can do one, you ain’t my friend.
