Haha yes, it would have been a whole lot more interesting under a new banner! I think your average person and your average hipster are very different people...

I think your average person and your average hipster are very different people... I suppose we'll have to see what crowd they're going after? I can pretty much guarantee this would just confuse my folks, and I have a lot of friends who religiously use Facebook, but they do so because it's not like this.
- anjc 14y agoYou're totally right, but i think just the fact that you've said "this will confuse my folks" (it'd confuse mine too) shows that change has to come at some stage in terms of the dominant social network. Maybe Myspace wont be it but, Facebook just isn't cool anymore.
- gizzlon 14y agoMaybe that's the point? That it's something you parents don't use. Can't use even.. I'm actually much more interested in a MySpace reboot than just another new "music-sharing social site".
- iamben 14y agoMaybe the problem is it's always going to feel like a MySpace reboot under the MySpace banner? And I'm with you - something entirely fresh would be fantastic (whether that's trying to attract everyone or a more niche audience), the worry is this ends up becoming exactly as you said above - just another new music-sharing social site - that doesn't attract anyone (long term). Still, my fingers are crossed and I'm looking forward to giving it a go.
