Heh. Murdoch's MySpace is still getting SHELLACKED by Facebook

[charlie]

Poor dumb Rupert. He bought GeoCities 2.0 and figured the Fox Nation idiots would come running.

Instead, he's just ceded to Facebook's dominance and allowed integration with his rival.

Oh, and he's no longer into "social networking", newly redesigned MySpace is now a "social entertainment" destination. Hah! Flail, flail, flail. Mo' money, mo' money, mo' money... down the drain.

Apparently, he's in heads-will-roll mode right now. His flunkies have gotten the word they have quarters, not years to turn things around.

MySpace is currently losing over a half billion dollars a year.

I love it when Rupert loses big money. When Rupert loses money, I hear angels singing.

1. I hope GeoCities 3.0 fails too.

Facebook, whatever.

2. Who still uses myspace?

Only people who are sooo out of touch like every republican senator. I certainly don't know anyone who still does.

3. what the hell is geocities?

myspace is basically a singer/band site now. no money giving away free ads for bands and singers. rupert is really stupid.

5. I want Rupert bankrupt, and completely disassociated from Faux, indicted, arrested, and deported

back to Australia where he can go fuck up the country instead of ours.

6. And we should root for Facebook?

[charlie]

8. No

I have no love for Facebook.

But, they're not NewsCorp. Rupert's blowing obscene cash chasing them. Which gives me the happy itches.

7. Too late. Murdoch's greed already destroyed it.

Trying to boost revenue with more ads and countless band pages is exactly why it died.
