Why I Dislike Myspace

This is a bit of a spur of the moment post. At the risk of sounding old, I just have to say that I don't like myspace. And I don't really get why it is so popular. My critique is mostly technical/visual. I think I get the social networking concept and how that could be cool -- if it were done right. Myspace just does not do it well. It is not a visually appealing site -- it almost has a retro 1998 look to it (as if 1998 could be retro). Plus, perhaps due to its overwhelming popularity, it seems to still be full of bugs and glitches. Again, this is a spur of the moment post. I've not really thought this through, although I've known for a good while that myspace is overrated.
