Reading that I must say that I am glad that I don't use MySpace.

A lot of kids use Myspace.

Ouch - that's pretty nasty, and continues to illustrate the vulnerability of ordinary surfers to extreme greed and consumer market pressures on the internet.

It's pretty sad, especially as you'd think that MySpace would have a better vetting of it's advertising.

I guess that's the price of the popularity which myspace had created for itself. I went there a couple of times because of links people gave to their sites. And it's funny, whenever I go there, I get this weird feeling that I just want out of there!!!!
