He cries into him millions (received from selling his failing website to a music distributor) every night.

10 years ago | Likes 13 Dislikes 1

Iirc it was a guy that "hacked" myspace so that everyone who clicked his page was his friend, and also everyone on that persons friendlist/1

10 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

There was actually a guy who did that. This is Tom, the creator of MySpace

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Soon he was friends with everyone on myspace/2

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

With all the money he has now, he should be nowhere else but a swimming pool filled with cognac.

The man in the portrait is Tom: the co-founder of Myspace. Tom was your first friend after joining, and only the cruel would unfriend him.

Thank you I was looking for that comment... never had myspace account so that is why I was not getting the joke.

Okay but who remembers how important the song you picked for your page was?

10 years ago | Likes 85 Dislikes 1

Heck no! (I'll never listen to techno), but the background was also vitally important.

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

That song had to tell everyone about who you were and what you were about.

10 years ago | Likes 20 Dislikes 0

MySpace was started by this guy. His name is Tom. When you started a MySpace profile, your first friend was automatically Tom.

10 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

Thanks for not being the guy who instantly shits on the person asking the question just because they don't get it.

10 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

I don't get why people do that. How can you expect everyone to know everything all the time?
