It depends on what you put on it and what you use it for. People are getting up in arms about myspace because stupid kids put their whole life story on there...shoot, if there was a survey that asked them for their social security number they'd probably fill it out. Another thing is that there's creepy people on there that try and try to use it as a dating service, and parents don't like that.
I personally enjoy myspace because I like to be able to customize it and share SOME information with my friends. It gives them the ability to see what I like and dislike. I also like that because I'm more of a quiet, shy person in public, so it's easier to express myself online. It's all about how you use it.. you should never give away too much information, especially online.

Well let me start off by telling you that I personally have a myspace account. I think it is a great way to keep in contact with friends and family all over the globe, including loved ones overseas. It also allows you to find old friends from highschool, or do a search for people you have forgotten over the years to just see how they are doing. There are even privacy settings to keep your information from being viewed by anyone who is not on your friends list and can also set it so people cant add you as a friend if they dont know your email address or last name. I would probably say the worst part about myspace is the fact that you dont get the personal contact with people that you would by calling them or visiting them. It can also be very addicting. Oh yeah, they also have other things like myspace that people use such as LiveCherry. You could try one of those sites, or just make an account with one of those and see if you like it any better. So there is my answer, hope its fairly informative.

Do you think having myspace is a good thing or a bad thing?
I keep hearing all of the negative things about myspace and now I think I'm having doubts of keeping my myspace profile...I just dont know.

I've heard a lot of negative things about it also. However, I don't think that MySpace is a bad site. There are a lot of sites on the net that have the same thing going on. MySpace has just been unlucky enough to have bad publicity about it.
It really has a lot to do with the person using the internet responsibly. If you have children that use it, they ought to be monitored. If you don't want someone stalking you don't give out too much information about yourself. It just comes down to how much do you want someone to know about you. Be selective and protective.

I think it's a good thing, and stupid sick people make it into something bad. I also think that that percentage is super low but that's all you hear about it, so people assume that if you have a myspace account your a child rapist. Not to mention myspace has helped police catch numerous amounts of offenders.
I think it's meant to be a place for responsible people to keep in touch with far away friends, which is how I use it.

myspace in and of itself is not bad - it is the users and abusers that have made for bad things. Children on there w/ no parental control and the predators that are in our world today are part of the problem, along w/ people that just don't think before they type.

I think there are simply too many irresponsible and sick people on myspace. I'd never use it for anything, nor would I let my child have a profile on the site.

if you are under 18 years of age it's a bad thing. myspace is like a buffet for predators. kids don't see the problems. they just see the fun they are going to have.

Too many ppl have Too much empty time on their hands. Get a life, a job, fresh air. Very few ppl tell the truth online. Predators/kids alike. If u r smart enough to 'reach out' online b smart about protecting your personal info.
