I will post any rides that get scheduled on the myspace group in this forum. No need to get involved with myspace if you dont want to. Its cool to be able to see everyone collected in one place though.

unfortunately its the most used web 2.0 style app for social networking amongst my peers. ... Im sure over the next few years as this style of web application becomes more prevalent we will have more choices... but until then they can have my data. At least Mr Rupert will know Im 24 live in Sf and fugazi is my favorite band. heh

employers have been looking at myspace pages too...so those all-night-binge-drinking sessions that correspond with missed work days can now be figured out too.

they would probably rather document how many times you hit myspace or bikeforums during your workday! and its not just myspace.. why all the hate? haha.. its blogs in general.. everything you put up on the web is public so if you rant about the 7 tequila shots you did and the fact that you slept through your alarm on mspace or your blog or whatever its kinda a no brainer :)

there is something that bugs/irks (cant really figure it out) about places like myspace and blogs in general. Just a personal opinion, perhaps its the people you meet that tell you go check out their myspace place to learn who they are.

I hear you. You've met people face to face that have told you to look at their web presence to learn more about them?

09-21-05, 04:38 PM
Yah, I was there for a year. My best friend works there now. Its a fantastic company. I would have stayed but got an offer I couldnt refuse at a "big" tech company. They do great work. How do you know of them?

Yes, i actually have, and i had a friend that would rather send me to their myspace page in response to a question about what they have been up to lately. Just plain sad!

no kidding, speaking of online presences Eades has quite a nice one. All those guys are great friends of mine. The nashville and SF teams. Really cool people. I was checking out your flickr page the other day. Some cool photos! Are you a flash person as well?

i hate that... when you ask a friend what he's been up to(especially via email) and they say, 'go read my livejournal'. that is so not the jam.

mr sloth. Very interesting. Terror in pink mentioned you were from Boston. I wrote it off as a 2% chance I would know you. And look where we are now? Im fairly certain I will know your face once I see it. Are you on "the myspace" or do you have any pictures anywhere? There are a bunch of emerson kids in the city that were there while we were. Did you go all 4 years?

i was there all 4. got my DEEEEGREEEEEEE in audio production, with minor in history (the john coffee way). a couple of my bikes, and a few pictures of my face are on "the myspace." maybe you'll recognize one of them from the bike room at 180 tremont.
