My Oh My!
It's been a while, hasn't it?
Does anybody use Xanga anymore? MySpace still annoys me. There are comments, bulletins, blogs, picture comments, and messages. Five ways to communicate. Maybe more. Who knows?
Nobody reads MySpace blogs (which is why I like Xanga better - the blog is what everything is centered around and what I enjoy doing most online and reading the most too); people read fewer and fewer bulletins, because 99% of them are stupid surveys or other wastes of time; people forget to check their inbox for messages (Actually, there are so many places to check for things on myspace that it has to remind you when something new comes in: New Messages! New Comments! New Picture Comments! New Threats From the Neighbor Regarding Your Noisy Dog!); and comments can become a twisted, confusing plot line that is hard to follow.
Having said that, the commenting is a rather nice way to send someone something short and sweet. Although when I try to capitalize and use proper line spacing and all that, it all is for naught, because whatever I type in is subject to the person's MySpace site preferences, which can be really annoying sometimes (and which they have no control over). Maybe I don't WANT all my text to be ALL CAPS. or maybe i don't want it to be all lower case either. AGGHH.
I guess I miss the original idea of pleonast, where I started out, where you can write whatever you want, and then see what others have to say about what you wrote. (And you can see it all in one place, without having to click on a "Comments" link.)
Back to work. I'm done complaining.
