Why I hate/need MySpace

I was reluctant to join MySpace because I knew it would suck up my online time.
There is also the annoyance of logging into it each time I get an email telling me someone sent me a message, or left a comment, or that someone, (usually a band, or a fan of Georges {Good}) (or some woman/man/other trying to show me pic of them in underwear{bad}) who all want to be my friend etc. With Blogger I don't have to keep doing that.
The only reason I joined MySpace was for research for my other blog The Stroumboulopouli . Only three other Stroumboulopouli joined MySpace for essentially the same reason.
George Stroumboulopoulos has a 'space' there. The other three 'Stroumbi' have thier own reasons not to join MySpace.
Look up http://myspace.com/georgestroumboulopoulos if you want to see Georges space.
The convenience of messaging George is maybe good, maybe bad. I could be in a good mood, or a strange mood, and it's too tempting to send off a message to him in either mood. Not that the man has time to read all his messages. But he did reply to me once there. That was good. I told him that MySpace is like a redlight district. He said: "i like how you call myspace the redlight district... funny... not entirely wrong either... Although a little redlight district can't be all bad... :-)"
The reason I need MySpace now is to promote the other blog and well... I am getting addicted to listening to all this music available there. Very time sucking wonderful new bands or favourite old bands. Darn you George for getting me sucked into that MySpace! I am enjoying talking with your fans and listening to great new bands! Next time I am on, I am going to give your picture on there the look. The angry, you did this to me, got me all involved in this whole MySpace thing, look!
