  • on April 24, 2006 at 1:35 pm

MySpace is the latest punching bag for people who are scared of the internet. Articles denouncing it’s ease-of-use for child molesters abound. But, the true problem with MySpace is that people spend all their time on it. A Texas college has banned the site because 40% of their bandwidth was being used for MySpace. And Apple has done the same in its stores. We’re enablers, so you can check us out on MySpace here. We have no friends. Don’t laugh at us.
