Lantern's Spotlight - MySpace.com

It had to happen sooner or later...

I was drug kicking and screaming to MySpace.com and I was trying to think about why. I'm a first-generation netgeek, fer cryin' out loud! I should've had one of the first MySpace pages out there, right? RIGHT?!

FEH! Actually I HAD a MySpace.com account some years ago back when it was an MP3-only storage site. 10MB of free space, I think it was. I remember I had a handful of tracks including William Shatner's version of "Rocket Man"...then one day I couldn't play it.

I probably never got the whole "MySpace" thing 'cause it was trendy. Sorta like Seinfield. I liked Jerry Seinfield as a comedian, but I never watched Seinfield the show...though I did recognize the passing of a cultural icon and DID watch the final episode. I think it's cause EVERYONE watched Seinfield just like everyone watched Friends and Everyone Loves Raymond.

Everyone does NOT love Raymond.

Just as I recognized the cultural impact of Seinfield, and can admit to watching a few episodes of both Friends and Raymond, that same spirit finally allows me to open up my own MySpace.com page. No, I won't be tweaking it constantly or blogging there constantly, but I realize that it's a big networking channel. Lantern's Light is still my home...albeit dusty from disuse. Well that's changing too...
