My Ever Changing Mind

Ok, so I know I have written opinions about myspace vs facebook and livespaces before and myspace fell short in my estimation. Well now that I have spent more time using all three I think facebook has now reached the bottom. It is cluttered and not customizable. Auto play is blocked so unless you have great skill in html and other such codes to find your way around it you cannot even have a photo slide show running on your profile. Visitors are forced to click the play button and then in most cases they have to add that app to view it. There are some cool apps don't get me wrong "pieces of flare", "Lil Green Patch", "Pandora" and "Mirror Blog" are nice but it gets pretty boring when everyone has the same look. (White background and blue and black text.) Myspace has done some great work recently in making there editing more user friendly and even though I have to cut and paste this blog to put it on myspace instead of clicking the update button like on facebooks mirror blog. Over all I would consider that a minor inconvenience. Sure there are people on myspace who have pretty cluttered pages and some are damn near unreadable because of the way they have chosen to customize but hey they CHOSE. I still love livespaces but since no one seems interested in it. I keep it for my parents, Jeremy, Ashton (no myspace for two more years for him) and a couple of others so they can keep up on my ever changing mind.
