I understand having celebrities & companies on MySpace. (e.g.: I added Madonna & Cherry Coke as “friends” to name a few) but why are pages made for dead celebrites? I don’t mind the page itself, (e.g. I’ve requested Marilyn Monroe & James Dean as “friends” but when someone is posing as the decendant, while writing the information, (or worse the “blogs”) it’s actually kind of creepy. Am I wrong in my thinking, because I really want to know!

You're right about the celebrities thing for sure, but now all it takes is getting featured! It's actually not that hard to get featured, and you don't have to use adders (like everyone hates) to get lots of friends either. I've included all the secrets on my blog right here! http://www.nickjag.com/

Excellent blog, with some great suggestions!

• Celeb profile – So true! There should be something on the lines of a MySpace ‘Salute’ that people… (Not just celebs) submit for Myspace approval to verify the person in the photo is actually them.

• An official MySpace HTML WYSIWYG editor would be splendid! I’m sick of seeing people use external wysiwyg editors or pre-made profiles that they then use and have alsorts of added advertising tags added.

The only gripe I have with myspace is the amount of fake profiles made by people trying to phish for peoples user login details or companies/marketers randomly adding me with ‘adder robot’ type software.

Regards

John

PS; Happy Holidays all!

Is it just me or does this seem like the old GeoCities part deux? I mean sure it’s hipper and on the surface less accessible to the older crowd, but over all, same thing different day, but more critical acclaim.

Normal links are one bet, although if you can do something “exceptional” and get viral links you’d be golden. Other than that joining groups, getting friends dropping comments, would all work.

Other than the normal ways, how do you get links to your myspace profile? Is there a directory, or a list of recently updated sites, or similar?

There's now a site that tracks the celebrities that have profiles on myspace. Most of the profiles seem to be the real thing. I've seen links to the profiles for Dave Chappelle, Scarlett Johansson, Vince Vaughn, and get this... Chuck Norris! http://www.myspacecelebrities.com
