Winning by Losing
« on: April 14, 2018, 01:14:56 PM »
Good point in this short article (you need to ignore the author's anti-capitalism BS). The guy that came up with Myspace is pretty much a nobody now, but a nobody worth half a billion dollars. I would say he's enjoying life a lot more these days than is Mark Zuckerberg.

Given circumstances like these, I'd happily be the loser that lives a stress free life. :)

Does MySpace still exist? Maybe it's time to bring it back.

I think so? It mostly became a place for bands to hawk their merch and albums after everyone else ditched it.

Edit: yup, still exists.

MySpace is SO different now! I had an account but haven't used it in a year or more. I went back and my account was gone, no loss. I was able to recreate it using the exact same info I used before so there's that. https://myspace.com/herohog
