My adventure all started with friendster in 1999. I briefly joined the social network until hearing that myspace was “much better”. I had heard foolish rumors that friendster was an east coast “thing” while myspace was a west coast “thang”. imagine that, a web coast rivalry, that’s just silly….
… but i had to go westsiiiiiiide.
I was pushed through the nasty social debris of myspace for about a year, all the while frustrated by it’s interface. I figured they were onto something, but the alternatives just wern’t out yet, and perhaps never would be. I commited myspacicide when Rubert Murdock bought myspace out.
