Cool, would only be interested in old school Myspace with no trackers, crawlers, or loads of BS that companies try to monetize data in every single possible aspect.
Then you’re going to end up disappointed.
Oh I’m not expecting anything to actually happen that way, and even if it did, that’d be temporary until the platform gets adopted enough to be valuable; then you get vendor lock-in.
it’s myspace of old, exactly, made by some kid in college. it’s good.
Yeah kids in college make great social media platforms
Look into “the small web”. You can get a site that is kinda like a MySpace profile, but you have more control.
Are they bringing Tom back? Otherwise, I ain’t going.
Are they bringing Tom back?
As far as I can see from the articles I’ve read, no.
I heard he was retired and living like a king in Patagonia.
I’ve heard the same.
Honestly good for him. As long as he’s not treating others poorly and just living his life? GG’s. Better than the other CEO’s we see nowadays
No one would surrender to the Dread Pirate Tom.
He always looked so laid back.
Is 2006 coming back? I’d prefer that, but MySpace as it existed then wouldn’t land the same way now.
- Wait until midnight.
- Turn on the computer using the foot’s thumb finger.
- Clean the mouse’s trackball while you hear the Windows XP’s starting song “trunn trun trunnn, trun-trunnnnnnn” in your bedroom, followed by some cracking noise foretelling an incoming cellphone call in your Nokia 3310.
- Dial the ISP using the Windows XP’s “Dial-up connection” dialog
- Spin up a Winamp playing the same “Numb” by “Linkin Park” (or “Bring me to life” by Evanescence, or “Fireflies” by Owl City, or several other classics) over and over again.
- Spin up MSN Messenger and see that “Numb - Linkin Park” (or whatever song) as both your status message and your contacts’ as well.
- Spin up Internet Explorer 6 and go to Orkut.
- Oh, a new testimonial and two new scraps.
- Also a new discussion thread in the community “Eu odeio acordar cedo”.
- Got tired of Orkut communities, check if there’s anything new in “Buddy Poke” and “Happy Farm”.
- Got tired of Orkut altogether, but Jake, my colleague from school, just made my MSN window to shook and sent me a Wink, inviting me to a match in Counter Strike. I plug it to the living room’s CRT TV using a convoluted connection.
- My grandpa starts complaining about how I’m damaging the CRT TV with the pesky Computer-to-TV adapter.This won’t be coming back. Like, ever. The Alpha Gen and most of the GenZ will never be able to truly know what I’m taking about.
So, please MySpace, don’t try to fool me with illusory hopes. Yahoo Messenger isn’t coming back. Limewire and E-mule’s “Every-Linkin-Park-album-ever-released.exe” aren’t, either. And it won’t be MySpace the one to bring that to life (pun intended). Since Harambe died, the world has never been the same. In the end, it doesn’t even matter.
Weird that Myspace is still “owned” by someone when it’s spent so long not being a thing that exists.
It never stopped existing. Its been a weird music thing for a while.
As I remember, it kinda started as a music thing, too. It was always where people put their band pages back in the day, at any rate.
It still existed, just not used by many people for a long time. Probably mostly just bots talking to each other. 🤣
Does Justin Timberlake still own it?
