MySpace needs to reinvent itself with a new name and less suckage. There needs to be a social network that limits the age groups of people allowed to access and sign up. Oh wait that WAS Facebook until greed kicked in.

This, there isn't anything remotely close that can take down Facebook.

I think it'll be a long time before something does. Then again we did say that about Myspace.

Spammers aren't going to spend $1 on each target. The cost would be astronomical. The entire concept behind their strategy is extremely cheap high volume marketing.

Myspace was always trash.

Wow. I never even noticed the other tab before today. Crazy. Whatever. Doesn't bother me at all. Send me stupid messages. Unless they make it where you can pay $5 and disable my ability to delete it, I'm not going to worry.

Glad I deleted that crap two years ago.

I had successfully deleted my facebook about 3 mo before I moved to Chicago and after I moved about 2 mo later I realized I needed it to keep in contact with some family.

To delete you have to go through this page:

https://www.facebook.com/help/delete_account

and then you have to not login for 90 days

Then the account is gone for good

I had no idea there was an 'other' box, so I just went and looked. Among various spam, there was a year-old message from a guy I kind of knew in high school. He was asking me to be a reference for him for a job he was applying for.

What?

I've seen this guy one time in the past thirty years, which was at our high school reunion last year. We didn't even talk to each other then, just nodded and said hi.

He was a nice fellow and I hope he got the job, but that's kind of odd.

I've gotten a dozen friend requests from people I've never heard of that I have no friends in common with over the past couple of days. Very odd.
