Adventures in Myspace

Well, at long last I managed to free some time to go and explore Myspace & Facebook. Interesting experience but I am not sure whether they are for me, in fact I know they are not for me.


I got into Myspace and just hit the browse button and all I got was a bunch of young females. I sit there, thinking isn't there anyone over 21 and male on Myspace, then i noticed Browse funtion had defaulted to females.


So, I ended up searching for a comicbook writer, Brian Michael Bendis (That's him below, not the most photogenic fellow going around). He had more friends then there are Melbourne members. Bunch of nerds, all dressed up in Superman outfits. Time to get out of there.


Facebook was a lot of work just to get on, so I joined up as Kangan Lite and searched for Bendis again. Sure enough he was there also, but only had about 100 friends. Interesting thing I noticed was that it also gave me hits of people who had books written by him. Interesting way to connect with other people with your interests, but life is too short and I don't have the time to talk to a bunch of comic nerds, I'll rather read. Thus, I deactivated my account and I don't envisage going back to either one for awhile.
