I miss how MySpace used to be, I haven't got one message or comment on there in a year, everyone moved to Facebook, and now MySpace is dead.

I don't like Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook Founder) he says he's the one who cameup with the social networking idea, when MySpace started before Facebook, and now this kid is a billionaire. Just annoys me I liked the idea where I could customize my profile however way I wanted, and Facebook I got the same crummy look everytime I log in. (Unless I use a greasemoney script, but it'll never be the same)

As long as Facebook keeps being popular and people use it they will always be someone out there who wants to exploit it. I think with all the problems Facebook has had recently its slowly becoming less popular anyway and I heard their was a opensource social network website being made thats suppose to be better than all the others..I cant remember its name though :? im sure I saw it on the news a while back.

That is why I dont Use Facebook or any of those sort of sites any more and too be Honest I dont want thousands of FACELESS FRIENDS who supposedly are your friends, If you have NO Friends in the real World then FaceBook is for YOU :) But i like my friends to be real People who i can actually Trust and in todays Society TRUST is the most important thing that i want in a Friend.

There are too many Backstabbers out there who pretend to be your friend then end up Ripping you off or just are not Trustworthy.

This is just my way i look at things :)
