Ugh. No hostful this week. We recorded it but the one of the mics failed. It would drive you crazy, trust me. Sorry! Guested ep flyin' in!!! link
about 1 hour
We did. Facebook crushed myspace!!!
SO TRUE! I love it
I can gladly say I never had a myspace. Still have my Facebook and Twitter though.
It was inevitable. The onion’s wonderful take on Friendster:

I’m getting chills just looking at it.
know what, im putting mine down right now
MySpace was just a marketing play thing. Get as many “friends” as possible then try to sell them someting.
i love how you have the option to share this on myspace
Win.
I can’t help looking at Darren and seeing Luke Wilson!
I really wish they hadn’t made SuperNews into a show.
Excellent. I can’t even remember if I ever signed up for MySpace.
I feel kinda bad since now i never got to experience myspace
Good thing facebook and twitter will be around forever, tho.
That explains why I’ve had this inevitable urge to high-jack all of my Myspace pics and run off screaming. I’ve left the poor thing desolate for far too long. … maybe I’ll take the housing market foreclosure route; just leave it behind with my glory still intact and wait for it to disappear off of my internet status.
I go in there every few months, look at the latest new format trying to copy Facebook, look at my SPAM e-mails, and then leave vowing never to return.
I love this video! Sooo well done, and such a document of the internet in general, where time is more mutable than ever before. BUT, if you want to reach teens, it’s still where they hang out. Facebook and Twitter are for older peeps.
That kind of made me sad!
great video
and funny nonetheless.
I’ve been vowing to delete mine for several months/almost a year now, and i can’t remember my password, and the forgot password is broke and i never really cared… i guess i’ll try to delete it again… oh look a new tweet…
