Zynga and Other Game Devs Abandon MySpace

[Frank_Sinatra_]

I bet this guy:
[http://s350.photobucket.com/albums/q403/shralps/?action=view&current=myspace-tattoo-254x300.jpg]
is really regretting his tattoo now.

BA-HAHAHAHAHA! I'd hate to be him.

For 1, I didn't even know Zynga had bothered with MySpace.
For 2, the fact that MySpace still exists baffles me.

What the hell IS keeping Myspace alive at this point?

Orphan tears and child labor...

OT: Bout damn time they they left that misleading enterprise company. Which company am I talking about again? Zynga or Myspace?

I want to feel something but I don't

It'd be interesting to see a detailed timeline of Myspace's lifespan.

I recently did my companies Online I.T. Policy refresher course, it was quite funny how there was no mention of Facebook or Twitter. Rather the documentation said that while social media could be a useful tool too much time spent on MySpace was a breach of company policy. Why yes, I do work for a subsidiary of News Corp.

awwwww, now I can't have five more people possibly play my games... lol.

MySpace actually still exists!?!

Wow, I used to use that yyyyyyyyeeeeeaaaaarrrsss ago. I thought it had shut down!

What he said. I seriously thought that it was closed down years ago after it tried to remake itself into a music site..

And wasn't it owned by yahoo?

Nope, News Corp bought it back in... what? 2005 or so?

You were close- March of 2006. And wasn't THAT $580 million well-spent?! Brilliant move, Rupert Murdoch.

Myspace? Never knew it actully existed. Then again I don't even have a facebook accont.

 

[Mantonio]

I'm actually pretty pissed off.

Because I got Myspace back in the day not because I wanted too, but because my friends constantly pestered me.

Then I had to move to Facebook when everyone else did. And now that's dying as well!

 

[Void Droid]

I stopped using Myspace because regardless of the PC or laptop I was using once I opened Myspace it always slowed to a snails pace.

If a "social networking site" is nothing more than obnoxious little girls with their glittery text, embedded click-trackers, and spam-bots, of course it will go down the drain. Now all that there is left to happen is to have FaceBook crash and burn. No really, why should FB exist since it has a history of gross privacy violations? Why should FB exist since it tracks its users -- WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION -- as they click through the internet through the "Like" buttons that are on every damn page?

Big brother is Facebook and most people don't even realize it.
