Ditching Myspace

I've out grown Myspace. I knew it was bound to happen, I just wasn't sure when. I can't take another glittery comment or the 20th run of a high school survey being filled out by my 30 something friends. it was fun at first, creating a profile, taking pride in the fact that I could tweak some code into creating my own layout without resorting to a layout editor, blogging about random things when I should have been reading about international poltical economies. I re-connecetd with dozens of friends cared to the far corners of the globe where only the internet and Coca-Cola connect them with Joe-six-pack sitting here in the states. But now it is just tedious. There are too many falshy whirlly gigs and friend request from "collectors" (you know, those guys that only have girls with big boobs in their top friend lists and not a single picture of themselves). I'm just through with it.

However, just because I no longer update my profile doesn't mean I'm going to scrap my page. Every now and then I still like to check out the bands there. Beisdes it really annoys me to go through my inbox and find messages I can no longer read because someone bailed on their profile and decided to delete the thing. I understand not updating it, leaving a meaage saying find me on facebook, or noting that you've given up technology and can only be reached by way of the post office. I just don't get why you must delete your profile completly.
