Hey MySpace users. Did you know that once a photo goes up on your MySpace, even though you leave your profile on “private” the photos can still go public? Ya. It’s called sharing on the internet. But then again, taking a bubble bath in your KFC employers sink isn’t any smarter either. Enjoy unemployment.

/facepalm. Seriously people? Seriously? According to TrendsUpdates, dedicated YouTube users are protesting the new widescreen player. The new YouTube widescreen player was quietly introduced recently without any bugs.

First it was the big UI change of Facebook that people protested, now this.

*gets on soapbox*

PEOPLE OF THE INTERNET. Change happens for a reason. A lot of thought are put into web technologies. If you can’t handle these progressive changes please choose between not logging on or limit your internet viewing to MySpace.com. Both options assure no progressive UI changes will occur in your daily internet surfing.

*steps down*

After Thanksgiving lunch, everyone was just lying around. I got bored and went to my computer room. In there I saw my cousin browsing his MySpace friends. Here’s what he showed me.

CAUTION: You may get a Pokemon seizure.

Can someone answer that for me?  As a Web Designer by day, it is my job to create web sites and ads that look good.  Websites and ads that have an artistic direction while pushing a point forward.

But why in the heck would ANYONE give just ANY Joe the power to *pretend* they have skill in this art? Flash music players playing audio on top of flash video players playing videos. Background animated gifs. Backgrounds with the same color as the main text color. Confusing layouts! STUPID MOUSE CURSOR FOLLOWERS!

AHHHH!! This is why I call MySpace the SH*T hole of the internet and why I love Facebook. Facebook gives people what they want from a social networking site and NEVER gives anyone but REAL designers/developers a way to design and code things in the site.

Ok, I’m done ranting. What are you thoughts on MySpace today?
