Now there’s an idea for a t-shit:

“I hated MySpace before you’d even heard of it”

I too wish everyone would just leave MySpace but the reality is bands and promoters need to be there at the moment. Facebook is lovely and all but it’s more a personal networking thing than a promotional tool. (Allowing for overlaps of course.)

To me, Myspace and Facebook are different ways of reaching different audiences. I fully intend to carry on using both for now.

thanks for the useful tip Pete.

best tip for using myspace: ignore it and use facebook. you don’t get half the SPAM, it’s easier to use and you pages don’t stutter to load as someones crappy music tries to play automatically

(Although saying this, I do have an ever-growing dislike of Myspace, and bands from Ohio with 33,284 friends)

Haven’t tried it, but http://www.friendtools.net/support.htm seems to do the job … Googling ‘myspace auto comment’ comes up with a few bits and pieces

My tip is to forget MySpace and use Facebook! A Facebook group is so much easier to manage and the big advantage over MySpace is the ability to message all members at once.

I still use MySpace to promote but I don’t view the tedious task of pasting flyers onto profiles as an efficient use of time anymore.
