i think i really am, and i also think a bunch of the people i was really close to back at myspace are now as well… who knew what kind of phenomenon we were a part of, and to be part of it in what i would consider its infancy (yep, i was there when myspace only had 4 million users!)… and while i don’t really know what happened after i left that caused people to leave, i’m sure it’s not that big a deal with them either…

the one thing i always remember was when the music section was just starting to get big… i remember that Tila Tequila was the most viewed “musician” in the section… i mean, how could she not be?? she just flaunted a lot of skin in a section of myspace that had high visibility… i remember it was either boz or pkats that said “i listened to her music, it wasn’t terrible”

now she’s on the cover of Stuff magazine… what is up with that?? i think having her as the most viewed early on allowed her to snowball and stay at #1… i still can’t believe she’s on the cover of Stuff magazine, she’s not even all that good looking… i don’t think doug thought she was all that either, but then he prolly got jaded from her early on since he was primarily in charge of the music section… but i remember boz and pkats talking about how hot she was (they love them asian girls haha)… ah, those were some good times…

all the press i hear about myspace now is about all this child endangerment, people getting suspended from school, stuff like that… it’s kinda sad because to me it meant more about the awesome people who made it happen, not about the phenom or the popularity… hell, i still sport my shirt every once in a while.

i doubt any of the myspace crew ever stumble across this, but you guys were one of the best groups of people i’ve ever had the opportunity to work with… i never would’ve learned as much as i did in that short amount of time… i can’t believe it’s already been more than a year since i’ve worked there… oh well, good times nonetheless.
