MySpace: yes, and your point?

[tamaranth]

A rather patronising article on the BBC Magazine about the rise of MySpace. ("Perhaps the biggest headache anyone with a couple of hundred mates needs to get their head around is how to manage their Christmas card list.") But what they're describing doesn't seem much different to LiveJournal or any of the less formal, more community-based blogging sites.

So ... tell me about MySpace. Why should I know about it? And has the bloke from the Beeb missed the point?

The only thing I know about MySpace is that Rupert Murdoch owns it.
Which is possibly enough.
