"I was having a discussion about the relative merits of Myspace versus Live Journal, and there was a theory postulated that the power of a name carries far: that by having a LiveJournal account, people feel compelled to write; whereas a Myspace account only encourages the occupation and decoration of a given volume.To put it more bluntly, having a ( Read more... )

I write more in my myspace than lj now. I sometimes cross post tho. Or write things here that I don't write on myspace.

I agree with that. I've recently got a Myspace account because I want to network with other PR students/professionals and I would like to keep up with some old friends from high school and college. I will only write in Livejournal because I started with Livejournal to write. Now, if I feel the need to create backgrounds and do-hickeys with my Myspace account, that's fine and dandy, but I really prefer Livejournal over the whole my Myspace account.

I've gotten so much critism for having both of Livejournal and a Myspace account. I only use the Myspace account for seeing old friends from high school and college and for networking. I use Livejournal to actually write what I'm feeling and what-not.

You are right in the mattter that the Myspace is more for creating designs and swirly-sparkly objects and networking with other people than self-expression. I just thought I would copy and paste it on my Livejournal to say that I'm not the only person that feels the same way I do.

So, thanks Joel.
