Nice photos!

I was pretty upset they didn’t let me in. I guess they don’t want all developers to learn about their new APIs :\

I think it’s comical in a cautionary way that you mention the well know entrepreneur’s comment that “No one here even has a MySpace profile.”

How can Social Media as an industry turn its collective back on such a seminal component of the very stuff we talk about all day, especially considering the financial powerhouse backing them?

MySpizzle is still the most productive Social Media home base for my clientele of authors, artists and small businesses, where a few well placed connections or new business opportunities can have a significant impact on their revenue.

I’m glad to see them paying attention to their public, even if it is playing a little catch-up while wearing corporate shackles.
