So I was chatting with a new online friend of mine tonight. His name is Daniel. That is sucha great name! I love that name. So strong and sexy, that name. Oh, what? Yes! It is my name too! How convenient! Here I know this whole new person really, and I don’t even have to learn a new name! I love that!

But where was I goin’ with this? There was a point, I swear! Oh! So, yeah! So I went to his MySpace (ew, MySpace. I know. My eyes!). His is totally tasteful tho. It’s like a brownish gray with nothing blinkie and only one auto-starting song. And it’s not a bad song. See? He’s good people! But anyhoo, he has this Madonna clip of the newest concert version of Like a Virgin.  It is actually more than that but it starts on Like a Virgin. All I can think of when I see that clip is MY favorite version of that song performed live....

But then I feel old. I remember listening to this song brand new on the radio way long ago, and don’t you dare say how long. I remember the controversy. My mother’s reaction. The original video. Wow. The newer version does nothing for me. Other than make me feel old.

Here’s a map that shows the dominant social networking application per country.

It’s interesting to note that Canada prefers Facebook, while the US prefers MySpace. Intriguing!

Soldiers serving overseas will lose some of their online links to friends and loved ones back home under a Department of Defense policy that a high-ranking Army official said would take effect Monday. The Defense Department will begin blocking access “worldwide” to YouTube, MySpace and 11 other popular Web sites on its computers and networks, according to a memo sent Friday by Gen. B.B. Bell, the U.S. Forces Korea commander.

The policy is being implemented to protect information and reduce drag on the department’s networks, according to Bell.

CROSS-POSTED from Stale Betty since dp.com was down.

Daniel here. I have hi-jacked the Betty Network tonight. I don

Work was an absolute drag today. I can say that because no one would look for me here! Or would they?

But really. I hate people above who undermine the decisions of those of us below, and then leave the aftermath for us to figure out. ...Hello? My plan was the one YOU CHANGED. So now YOU should own the initial problem. Since you were too petty to work together on a solution and just VETOED my solution, I feel you now own the problem. Get to it

MySpace is so hawt right now. I mean seriously. You know that concert I was at the other night? Sooo many MySpace people. You can tell because you hear the arguing… “Why I’m not in your top 8?!” “Whaddaya mean? I looove you! We’re tight!” “But I’m not in your top 8! Aren’t I good enough?” Wow. It’s serious over there at the MySpace. And I thought we bloggers with the blog roll situations were bad!

But it gets worse. As you know I work in the retail industry. That means I tend to work with a lot of young folk. Young folk who talk constantly about MySpace, their top 8, how much time they spend logged in or whatever, as well as their top 8 again. I think it shocks them that I know about it, get what they are saying, and all that. They insist that I am on there and vow to ‘find me’ and ‘comment’. Heh. I tell them it’s a waste of time. “I don’t DO MySpace. It’s filled with perverts!” But that just gets them even more convinced that I’m there somewhere! It makes me laugh.

Next my mother will probably get on there. Richard’s mother is. It’s spreading.
