i totally agree with you on this one. i'd like to add that it's important to treat myspace just like a dating site if that's how one is going to use it. people think that because it's not billed as a dating/hook-up site, that these strangers are gonna be friends, but it's just not the case. meeting anyone from any site on the internet is dangerous, because one has no idea who they're dealing with.

i love myspace because it enables me to keep in touch with my friends from all over the world. it's more used than friendster, which i actually like better, however. i never accept "friends" requests from people i don't know, unless they are librarians from one of the lirbarian groups to which i belong. i think myspace is just like any other site -- chaotic, and necesitates careful attention.
