No Mas Myspace!

I am done with Myspace. I've found too many opportunities in that forum to sin. I am uncomfortable with the stalker factor, as well. What a commentary on our culture, that we designate an abstract string of zeros and ones as a "place" to know and to become known. We've forsaken the lost forms of letter writing, conversations over coffee or dinner, and the time necessary to really engage someone to know them. It's ironic that to be known, we would isolate ourselves with our laptops, rather than clear an hour just to be in the presence of another person.

Now, I understand that distance can be a mitigating factor. I work with a guy whose daughter lives in Michigan, and he sees her once a year. Cellphones aside, Myspace is their forum for talking. That works for some people.

I'm sick of the glitz - graphics, wallpapers, friendslist, comments, etc. I'm sick of the trash - stalkers, porn... things no healthy mind needs.

For my purposes, this blog works much better. Read it. Know me. Leave a comment. Send me an email! Start your own blog and send me the link.

I am free!
