Not me either. Just not something that ever tickled my fancy.

I have a MySpace but I rarely use it, only to view other people's photos since you need an account to do so. Facebook, on the other hand, is something I use often and am completely addicted to. It's just so handy & unlike MySpace, I don't have to deal with annoying bands I've never heard of trying to add me.

I'm on it, and have regained touch with a lot of old friends.

Facebook is something that I refuse to do because I will not reveal my school.

Tabbycat, in the past little while (a few months I think) Facebook has changed so that you don't need to provide your school to sign up. You can use your city, and I've seen people who have "no network" so I think you might not even need that.

I have to agree that it's one of the ugliest websites around. Some pages crash my browser due to the numerous videos, music players, animations, etc. I do visit it to listen to free music. Can't beat that!

I'm on it. I have been reconnecting with old friends. Frankly I LOVE it overall.

There are some friends I just never talk to outside MySpace - it is just convenient to keep in touch with people.

Re: NE1 else avoiding MYSPACE hype?

I can see how I would be on a site like that and love chatting with people online when I struggle with communications in life due to my limit of hearing.

However... I refuse to even check out the site. I just have too many things to do around the house, concentration at work and my time with my soon to be hubby.

Priorities and time needs to be in reasonable order for me to keep my life on track. The only message boards I go to is this site and a few wedding message boards as I am in the middle of planning a wedding and like to hear from others who are in the same boat.
