For the record I would like to note that I was using MySpace long before the bands came on. Regular Friendster users made the transition pretty early and although some bands made profiles, the "music" and "band" parts of MySpace came along after it was already pretty well along. (I was also long out of college).

myspace perhaps a lot more suited to people in the process of finding / developing their identity.
― acrobat, Thursday, 28 June 2007 16:30 (eighteen years ago)
scotty...SCOTTY!
Yeah, weird, I generally think of MySpace as the site for people who have never been on a social-networking site before and probably aren't interested in joining another one. Facebook would only be appealing if they enrolled in college/grad school.

i took bands off because i thought my honest list of favourite artists was needlessly long - and the ones i took out were some pretty 'obvious' ones - no other reason.
i might add Althea & Donna tho - man I have all their SONG
― blueski, Thursday, 28 June 2007 16:56 (eighteen years ago)
never understand why peoples band lists are so long

I am trying to hide my nerd life from new girl I met. How long will it take?

block her.
― That one guy that quit, Thursday, 28 June 2007 18:15 (eighteen years ago)
Make sure she never hears of ILX
― Ms Misery, Thursday, 28 June 2007 18:16 (eighteen years ago)
I hope you didn't tell her your name was Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, because there are only like 3 of those on the googleable internet
― Curt1s Stephens, Thursday, 28 June 2007 18:30 (eighteen years ago)
We don't know each other's last names.

^^ thats always the best way:)
― 696, Thursday, 28 June 2007 18:37 (eighteen years ago)
people's band lists are so long because they want to cast the most comprehensive possible net in which to snare gurls people using band names as search terms
― Tracer Hand, Thursday, 28 June 2007 18:39 (eighteen years ago)
Or because they're extremely anal (see: my band's MySpace page).
― jaymc, Thursday, 28 June 2007 18:47 (eighteen years ago)
Or record-collecting music nerds.
― Ms Misery, Thursday, 28 June 2007 18:52 (eighteen years ago)
oh, it gets you sex? anyone mind if i copy and paste theirs?
― 696, Thursday, 28 June 2007 19:01 (eighteen years ago)
Or autopopulated their list
― Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Thursday, 28 June 2007 19:06 (eighteen years ago)
i faked my list.
an ilxor knows someone i knew irl, it's wild.

hot girls are always, always searching facebook for guys who like the same bands they do. how else do they get guys, after all?
― That one guy that quit, Thursday, 28 June 2007 21:04 (eighteen years ago)
your logic is well sound
― blueski, Thursday, 28 June 2007 21:28 (eighteen years ago)
i mean, srsly, how many hot progressive chicks must there be?
― Just got offed, Thursday, 28 June 2007 21:32 (eighteen years ago)
maybe i will bond with a total stranger over a shared fondness for whoever the fuck's in my list.
― That one guy that quit, Thursday, 28 June 2007 21:39 (eighteen years ago)
no you won't enrique, because you have a closed profile, so nobody but your friends can see your music list. i know this because we're from the same area (london) and i can't access your profile. breathe a sigh of relief, why don't you.
― Just got offed, Thursday, 28 June 2007 21:52 (eighteen years ago)
shit has irl consequences bro.

nrq you are tripping over this so much it's kind of funny
― lex pretend, Thursday, 28 June 2007 21:58 (eighteen years ago)
c'mon milo, you should only need 'liberal'! i guess in america, 'liberal' still means 'fucking conservative, but we probably need a better healthcare system'.
i've never had irl consequences from my public facebook profile, although i HAVE had (well-publicised) irl repercussions from ilx...
yeah, with regards 'rolling out', it seems you've been in cambridge all this time and never suggested a mini-FAP. i'm disappointed, nay, heartbroken. sadly, i'm now back in london. maybe next year. tissp can come along too!

something which people should learn: just because a box is there does not mean you actually have to fill it in
― lex pretend, Thursday, 28 June 2007 22:01 (eighteen years ago)
sorry jiggaman, i've been keeping things covert recently, hence facebook 'issues'. i filled out the box while it was still students early and didn't think of it again till a few months ago when i happened to check my student emails...

i think the 'social networking for non-internet people' meme is right. facebook is down right now -- classic friday afternoon slacking syndrome. and i was just about to drop blue steel :(
