my stalker dot com

i have recently began using myspace.com, i had avoided it as long as i could thinking that i was too old and too cool to be a part of the fad. but once i joined i realized why everyone loves it: it is the best way to stalk people. i am not sure what else there is to do on the site. i suppose you could use it as your blog, or a very limited online photo album, or something else i dont even know about. but basically the only use for the site is to think of people you havent seen in a long time and search for them and hope that they have a picture. if you are sucessful, then you click on the pic and visit their page. then you go to their friends and see if you recognize anyone. good chance you will, at which point you will go to that page. pretty much its like stalker central. and you know everyone is fairly selective regarding the pictues that they use. and for good reason, because there is a decent chance that some old friend is going to come across your page and see your picture. and thats all you have to show. you may not have seen this person in 12 years. you could have been an all state athlete, gotten 1600 on the SATs, graduated from MIT in a year and now own an entire state... but you have to represent all this in a single picture. it is possible to mention this information in other ways, but i am just being honest and realistic when i say that a majority of stalkers (i mean users) are looking first at the pictures. for secondary stalking, they might check your employment listings or educational experience. but i am tellign you that really its what pictures you post and who your friends are.

having said that, i will continue to use myspace and hope that any of my readers who also use the site will add me a friend if they have not done so already.

edit: if you read this blog and post regularly, i might add you to my top friends.
