I dumped MySpace

For those of you who might be wondering where my MySpace profile went... it's gone. I am tired of getting spam of all kinds from MySpace: porn sites trying to friend me, bands looking for new fans, and even the occasional bad comic trying to get me to go see his show.

However, the final nail in the coffin was when someone hijacked the account of someone I know and started using it to send spam. I tried to tell her to change her password, but it apparently didn't work... I kept getting spam after spam from her MySpace account.

Yes, I have had some good experience with MySpace: a couple of friends I haven't talked to in a long time found me through there, but the down side is that with all the spam I get now, I would have missed their "hello" letters or friend invites anyway.

Maybe I'll re-connect. I don't know. But for now, no social networking sites for me.
