What happened to Email??

Post by ShiKung »

OK so Im only just catching up with the Myspace thing but Im totally over getting hit up by people from Facebbok, SMS.com, Tagged, Gifted or whatever all these other sad excuses for communication things that go on.

Its not communication, what was wrong with a group email?? They always change anyway, I signed up to a few of these things years ago and they are no longer used or I have forgotten the password anyway.

Its ridiculous! Send me an email or give me a phone call or something?

I feel so dated but thats my rant!

I reckon.
What shits me is that, you sign up to one of those page thingees and the person who invited you doesn't even update their bloody page! HELLO I thought that was the main point so you can keep your friends updated daahh! So I delete all those so and so has invited you to blah blah (I hope at the same time the person who sends these things don't get offended that I didn't accept their invite....)
Plus I know enough bloody passwords and pin numbers I can't be arsed remembering more. Let alone be arsed maintaining different pages, two is enough for me thanks.

true for me also.
myspace has worked well for choosing which vocalists to work with, i can bust around listening to stuff on their profiles and if i like i can hit em up in a message and sort it. can't think of any other way to do that

COULD NOT be bothered with all this facebook, myspace stuff, etc. i do find myspace handy for checking out DJs and stuff like that, hearing their new tunes. But that is it.


Email, sms or phone call. That is all

You can link your msypace home page to facebook, so your friends can check out your tunes with out being stalked by chicks with big tits and lame unsigned emo bands.

when SMS' first started it was "why can't they just call me?

then emails came in and it turned to "why can't they just SMS or call me?"

now it's Facebook/Myspace and people are choosy with 'how' they want to be contacted

LOL

I recently sent an urgent message in a bottle at a party.

It was in a beer bottle in the pool.

I ended up opening it myself, cause I had forgotten what it said and I was sure it must have been something good.

It was pretty crap.

True story.

if that's your real email address id take it down - sure fire recipe for spam from bots scouring the web for peoples email addresses.

as for you guys complaining about presents, pirates, zombies, and poking... they are just external applications on facebook, if youre copping them it says more about the friends sending you them than the website itself.

oh i went there!
