Unless you've been living under a rock for the past few years, you've probably heard of Myspace. I'm interested in hearing some opinions on the subject of whether or not it's a useful site. Personally, I think it's a bad idea because what it basicly is, is just clicking on a page, having your router explode due to the overuse of pictures on profiles, listen to crappy music, and get friends requests every 5 minutes.

I find social networking sites annoying, but I don't really care if other people want to use them.

I admit I used to use it quite frequently, but I got into college, and to keep up with my friends that went to other states and friends back home, I use my Facebook. It's clean, efficient, and I don't have to bother with spam or friend invites from girls I don't know and don't want to know. I don't need a social network like either of them to survive, but Facebook is what I prefer.

I used to have it, but I kind of abandoned it after I kept getting friend requests from random kids and terrible bands like everyday...

I find it incredibly useful for tracking small bands and art collectives and staying apprised of their new material and upcoming shows.

Facebook is better for talking to my friends. Myspace is a waste and is only useful for looking up bands.

It's useful for keeping in contact with people and listening to new music, but I try to go on it for about 10 minutes at the most each day.

Used to use Bebo all the time, maily because of its simplicity

But then Myspace caught up and I spend most of my time on that now... it's good for checking music and stuff since the music section is quite big

Facebook has to be the worst website ever - it's not only boring but completely confusing and no-one uses it anyway :)

It's a boring spamfest with pages that take about an hour to load all the crap people put on their profiles. Facebook is better, and much cleaner.

I think it's an ugly looking site, someone should re-design it.

I'm still looking to make an account there though, people keep asking if I have a myspace.

They did a new background layout for your profile homepage. It just makes it confusing if you've used it for awhile. I stick with the classic though.

I'm pretty indifferent when it comes to Myspace. I do like it when it comes to checking out bands, but other than that... it just doesn't appeal to me at all.

I'd use facebook, but not too many other people I know use it.

So I stick to myspace, it's fine with me, since I only use it to message old friends and get opinions on some designs.

I prefer Facebook, but once Facebook becomes the same garbage site that Myspace is (will happen when custom Facebook pages are created) I'll stop using both altogether.

I like my Facebook, and Facebook in general, as usually you find people around your age, not ten year old kids posing for profile pics. Though, occasionally, you find the seventh grader on Facebook and it's a bit annoying.

I have it because my friends forced me into it. It's okay. I don't really see the point though since you can't really do anything in it.

A lot of it is just attention seekers, I only have one because it's a better way to keep up with the majority of my friends since some of them refuse to get AIM... it's also good for looking up a lot of bands and meeting some new people, but other than that it's just really stupid. I'd rather use facebook, but I literally don't know ANYONE who has one. I don't spend that much time on mine, just check out all my stuff and go do something else. xD

Personally I think the world would be a much much better place if it had never existed.
