But I don’t waste time on Myspace. 

I would like to do a survey on the type of consumers that still use myspace (besides the registered… and unregistered… sex offenders who, according to the lawyer I listened to at Wired Wednesday, pose as teens.)

Who are they? Mostly Generation X and younger (mostly younger). Kids who want to get online for entertainment purposes? 

I used to waste my time on Myspace

And goshdarnit I cannot seem to delete my myspace profile. I remember in the very beginning when everyone thought Tom was Jesus and the t-shirts came out and everyone made it a priority to have the best-looking background theme. Unfortunately… Myspace hasn’t developed into its potential.  

Myspace hasn’t graduated to become a business network

There are two types of internetworks: social networks, and business networks. Many networks aren’t even put in one category over the other… because they serve both purposes. 

For example… LinkedIn is considered a business network. But while Facebook used to be considered a social network, it is quickly graduating to combine business and personal relationships. 

I always tell people that each social network has a different purpose… Facebook is for friends and family, Linkedin is for businesses, and twitter combines them all. But the networks are changing. 

Facebook is BETTER anyway

Easier to use. Cleaner. Prettier. Better applications. Does nobody disagree? 

…

Other thoughts?

The truth is that when you notice a catchy trend, the game is to start using it as quickly as possible before it blows up. My partner and I probably own at least 50 domain names for great ideas that we may never have time to use, but at least we have the option! And it certainly keeps us on our toes at the forefront of marketing trends. 

A great example is the networking trend that just won’t stop, and it started when MySpace blew up. There are probably 100s of sites where individuals and businesses can go to connect. 

So take my advice, and go create a profile for yourself at the following URLs: 

GodFuse, LinkedIn, Facebook, MySpace, Digg, Delicious, YouTube, Technorati, SPhinn, StumbleUpon.
