I don't, although I seem to be in the minority these days  :P  I'm 21 and in college, and most of the people around my age are on the Facebook instead of MySpace instead...while everyone who graduated college before 2004 (or was never a student) and everyone high school age and younger is on MySpace!

I do use Livejournal for blogging purposes, though :)

I am hopelessly addicted.  I will add those of you who have webpages to my site as well.

 I'm on it and I'm addicted. I joined it because the people that were setting up my 10 year HS reunion started a group on there. It was really cool cause I moved away right after high school so I haven't seen people in years! Now most of my friends are on it too!

I LOVE your space!! How do you do the backgrounds? I have no idea. I added you to my friends. I have so few! I am new to all this but I hope to have a fantastic space like yours soon!

cool

Is it a free site and how much space do you get? This isn't part of the hotmail thingy is it?

I keep wanting to do one so I can put my pics up for my family back home. As it is every so often I burn a cd and send it to them.

My problem is I get hooked on the web things and I know that it doesn't make me popular at home. I can do a simple search for one piece of info that I found in 2 minutes but 2 hours later I am still reading about some newly discovered plant found under the toes of some fossiled creature in the great depths of some undiscovered hole in a mountain that dissappeared a millenium ago.

Ah what did we do before... well was fitter and healthier for a start....

Still tired of coteries and bans. But hanging about anyway.

I've been toying with signing up on myspace, but I'm one of those privacy freaks.  How private can you make it?  I just don't want my email address and stuff like that out there for the world to see. :-\\\\

I've been on MySpace for while now.

In order to add graphics or background you will need the html code- this is what I do for a living so it's easy for me- but Thomas' myspace editor will do it all for you.

It doesn't have your email address listed on it. Really, all it has is what you put on there. But, if you change your age to 14 then it will make your page private and people will pretty much only be able to see your display name and title. I've seen people do that and change their title to "I'm really 26," or whatever their age is.

If you use the blog feature you can make it so it's only readable to certain friends if you'd like.

In addition to what Cam said, you can also do a Google search for "free myspace layouts" or something along those lines and you can preview tons of them. They'll give you the code to copy and paste into your bio and it will change your page.

There are tons of sites out there with free layouts. A lot of them are pretty crappy but there are TONS. Just take a look when you've got some free time!
