MySpace turns out to be sorta useful
I was hacking around on my MySpace profile doing some research for how we might integrate MySpace into Profilactic. I guess I must have added some information that trigger alerts to existing MySpace users because, within a couple of hours, I had messages from several people from high school and college.
The coolest part was that they were all people I wanted to get in touch with. It was nice to actually see names that I recognized in my friend request list rather than "sexycandy" or "brooke~is~naughty."
So, despite all of the terrible things I've said about MySpace, it may turn out to be useful (in small doses, of course).
