MySpace -- rise and fall

It's a cruel world, where yesterday's shooting stars are already today's ashes ... There was an interesting piece on the reversal of fortunes of MySpace and Bebo in last week's technology Guardian. I guess it's just the fashion. MySpace is soooo 2006, and I reckon Facebook and Twitter will go the same way once we're into a new decade and something new has come up to push them from their pedestal.

Personally, I would have happily stuck with the 2006 model (i.e. MySpace) which still is the best for music and for meeting people who I would not have encountered otherwise. And I am relieved to find that the friends-drain I have experienced in MySpace isn't due to something I said ...
