I hear a lot of people say that myspace is really fun. So I want to ask what's fun about making a webpage, getting layouts, music, getting friend requests, and sending messages? I don't want to be mean I am seriously wondering. Also how much fun do you have on the site? What do you do on it? How long are you on? Do you recommend getting one?

Well... I had tons of fun making my page, adding links, music, photos, videos etc... I visit it at least once a day to see my messages. I personally don't use MySpace for fun but for networking and so far it has been good. I keep in touch with lot of people and I subscribe to their blogs so I get their news and I see their photos etc. So from that perspective it has been a fun experience, but if I want to have fun I met with my friends and we do something, I don't use MySpace. ;)

I used to think that MySpace was a lot of fun, but now it isn't as appealing to me now that I am older and I feel like I shouldn't be talking to people who are still in high school. I do love that it is so easy to catch up with old friends that you have lost contact with though.

I love my myspace. I enjoy making layouts and such. I keep in touch with my friends that do not live near me through there and I keep in touch with new friends from here and another forum. I get to see them with updated pics, leave them comments and messages, and just talk to them. I enjoy it and I stay on most of the day but that doesn't mean I'm on there.

Well my friend, myspace is a place where you can meet old friends and new friends. Just like all these other sites. It is a good place to network and a great place to learn about the internet and your computer. It all depends on what you want to do with it / you can just have your page with only your friends you know for real , or you can have mutiple pages, one with personal stuff , the other with a music page where you can distribute and connect with other music people, and you can have one just because you feel like having another. I dont know my little cousin showed me this myspace about 4 years i think and when he first showed me what you can do with it i was surprised . you can look for people in your area and its free and you can get a hold of people without using your cellphone bill/ so it is what it is / I would say start a profile you might get into it/

Its okay for awhile but then it does get boring. And its like the same people you are talkin to on MSN will send you coments aswell and its like why dont you just tell me on MSN. It gets annoying aswell when millions of people keep posting bulletins like - OMG new pic comments please! Why do you need comments what is the pint in people commenting you saying omg your hot when half the time they dont even mean it they just want you to comment the same to their pictures. Anyway, there isnt really anything fun about it if you think about it. Its just like a social thing and a good way to meet new people. When i log onto myspace i scroll and look for any comments, when there ar no comments i sign out. If i have comments then i usually reply. I would recommend getting one as they are a fun was to keep in contact with people.

I don't spend too much time on MySpace anymore... I think th emain "fun" that I got from the site before was finding a lot of people who I lost contact with from early school years, like elementary school and junior high... and in some occasions, even high school and college friends. Other than that, there isn't too much fun in it anymore. If you are looking for people that you miss or haven't talked to in a while, it could be nice. And then you can also discover some new music that you might not have heard before... it's a 50/50 prospect for you. Don't get engulfed with it, but there are some benefits.
