Been using the new MySpace for awhile now. I like it. Looks like it's changed a bit more lately though. Kinda neat really. Would be nice on a tablet for sure.

Don't really go to the new site or main much, since I really only go to MySpace to listen to an artists music to see what they sound like before I download.

I got access a month ago or so, I logged in, looked around for a bit and never went back. No point in it.

That depends I guess. There's no point in having your own start page/logged in page, really.

But MySpace does serve a very useful purpose, that's where all the music artist have there info and music at.

I use MySpace on a regular basis. Probably around 25 to 50 times a day.

Like I mentioned, I go there to preview a particular bands music and info about them, etc. etc.

99% of bands in the world are listed there, and as far as I can tell, MySpace is pretty much the only place.

Besides, on blogs I go to, when they have info/downloads of bands, they provide a link to MySpace, some link to Facebook, but bands don't have much material wise on their Facebook pages... yet. MySpace is the best for listening to their music anyways. YouTube for vids, but ya need the band info first.

It still exists???

Hey Grandpa, I've found your old SN Site!!!! :p

You still exist?

MySpace was designed for musicians, and is used by them still,

I don't recall any other sites they use, other than posting stuff that going on with them, on Facebook.

Surely they'll probably migrate fully to Facebook in the future.

People hold on to the past toooo much.

MySpace is about entertainment now. They bought one of the best sites for musicians awhile back and focused on it.

Even though they didn't bring one of the MOST IMPORTANT FEATURES OVER, WHICH WAS EASILY BUILDING/COMMUNICATING WITH A FAN BASE AND COLLABORATING WITH ARTIST. They still built a whole new monster that's awesome.

I hope to see more features from IMEEM come to MySpace. Targeting mainstream is great in all, but don't kill a community and force IMEEM users to MySpace to only shove mainstream down our throat and take away independent artist ways to grow and community with their fan base. I miss having LOTS of fans waiting on my music online to give their opinion on it. Also, I miss the 100 people a day list where people will join the site looking for new music. It was so easy to get fans and now only the mainstream gets this opportunity at the moment.

I remember back when MySpace was cool. You could post pure HTML in the comments and have it display. There was things where you could post <title> as the comment and it would delete the entire page.

For the most part though, my buddies and I would post gay porn all over our friends pages (we are all 100% straight and in no way enjoy looking at gay man on man porn), so yea.. MySpace.. it's all about the defacing.

I remember I spent a good day coding my own overlay for Myspace, it looked amazing in IE
