The death of myspace did not come from facebook, or from a change of times, no it came when myspace thought it had to be more like facebook.
facebook is a king of social networks, it is grate for keeping tabs on friends and family, although not very good like old myspace was with meeting strangers. facebook is simple, everyone looks the same. and has the same options with there profile. it also works somewhat well for free advertising for websites and store fronts.
the death of myspace came when it took the power away from the people using it. the power to make there profile to look work and feel however they wanted. it was a one page website. they took that away and its too late to give it back. the site is full of nothing but advertisers and bands and dead accounts. the real people that made it work have all left, never to return.
now the myspacers are going to the "new old" myspace called friend project. i found this place and love it. it is the good old social network of the past, plenty of real people and new faces everyday. i feel that this sight could become one of the WWW kings of networks.
if they keep this one thing in mind.
"let the people build what they want on there page, never take that away."
you can change all the other things, be invintive, but leave there pages alone, and the people that love there one page website will stay. take that away and they will never come back.
just a thought :)
there is one thing i think would be cool. if you could pic out your emotion, and then pic out your smiley, :) well that has not happened yet, but it is a up and coming site i think you should look at.
till next time :D

leave it alone uncle sam
Censuring the internet,
There are two bill coming up soon that
would censer the WWW.
With the tools we already have in
place, and new ones being developed everyday there is no reason to
censer the internet.
After this what next? Will the gov
deiced what we can see, talk about, or even the words we use??
I say that the gov is in debt, has no
business sticking its nose is what has been a very useful tool in
keeping the gov somewhat in line.
And theft will still happen after we
give up this right!!!
STOP!
These are our rights, lets keep them.
[The Rights of the people of the world.
At no point is no government to
restrict, or censer information that travels over the internet.
At no point dose a ruling body have the
right to punish people for , organizing , speaking, learning, or
listing to any thought, dream, idea, or belief that is transmuted
over the internet.
The only right that the government has
over the internet is the same rights as people do.]
And that is the bill we should pass,
demand they pass our bill for a change.
Even if pipa passes it can always be
changed, leave your comments below

So its Christmas time, a time for being with friends and family. However not everyone can be close to family this time of year, some just have jobs that are not close to home, some are over seas, and some family are going through tough times and can not afford it.
I know what that is like not being able to be close to home for the holidays, but we should be thankful. Most of us can call are family’s and with things like Facebook, e-mail, Skype, and other ways we keep in contact we are closer to the people that we care about. Just remember it was not that long ago that closeness was that easy.

Family recipe
What do people like, they like food, or
at least I do, so here is a favorite of mine that I learned when I
was just a kid.
Cheesy Tacos
what you will need
1 pack soft flour taco shells
2 blocks grated cheese (pick two that
you like)
1 lbs of ground beef
1 can of sloppy Joe sauce
and any toppings you would like
Cook ground beef till browned , drain
and add sloppy Joe sauce
in rectangle casserole dish add two
spoons of your beef mixture then add rolled flower tortillas with
your blend of cheese till dish is full, then cover with the rest of
your beef mixture.
Bake at 350 for 20 min
I like mine topped with sour cream,
avocado, and green olives.
But have whatever you like on yours

What have I learned?
Recently my grandfather passed away. He
lived a good and full life.
One thing I learned from him is that
you should live life one moment at a time, take your time to live. He
was wise, honest, a smart ass, joker, flirt, knew a little about
everything, and was always relaxed, at least as long as I knew him.
What a grate way to go through life,
actually seeing it. What a grate lesson, to watch life.
Will I ever learn that lesson??
See you in a few years, Grandfather
Jack (on my dads side), mama (my grandmother on my moms side) papa
(my grandfather on my moms side) and grandma (on my dads side). I am
going to try to learn from you, I am going to try to watch life, keep
intrusted and learning, do something fun, hold on to my beliefs, and
live.
I can only try.

Man oh Man
Man oh man it has been hot, some places have been dry some have been wet and some have been shaking around a bit. Gas is up, food supply is down, you should get ready for the end of the world.
I know things have not looked the best, but remember to look around you. There are a lot of good things haping that we don’t notice. The press wants ratings and look for the bad. And there is a lot of that, but there has always been a lot of bad, there has been a lot of good too.
So I know it can be hard to do, but look around you and look for the good.
Also say to yourself every morning “I have always lived the future”

Take 5
Today while I was at work, counting some inventory I became over heated. I now realize it is important for us to take some time to cool off, not just when we are physically hot, or emotionally hot, but a little time for us to know what we are doing.
I now know that if I would have taken the time to grab some water it would have proven useful at the time, and if we take just a moment for us in this fast and busy life it will be useful to us and the people around us. It can give us peace and confidence.
So in your busy and fast life tomorrow start something new. A few moments stop, look around, and decide what you are going to do next, and grab your “water”, whatever water you need and move forward. I know for one, I will be trying this new thing.
Just a thought.
