A Call to Delete MySpace Account on Jan 30, 2008
According to Melting Man, this is a anti-MySpace graffiti around the Shoreditch area. Shoreditch is a place in the London Borough of Hackney.
Mark 'Rizzn' Hopkins of Mashable has written an article entitled "January 30th is International Delete Your MySpace Account Day". It's not him. It is someone else who feels disgusted on MySpace.
"That guy" has listed his disgust.
- You rarely log in to Myspace except to delete spam friend requests from nude webcam girls.
- You spend five minutes writing a wall post only to hit an error message when you try to post it because of all the website glitches.
- You’re a girl who constantly gets marriage proposals from random men in the middle east.
- You visit someone’s Myspace profile only to suddenly have music start blasting out of your speakers. Bonus points if it happens to you while you’re at work.
- You have to make redundant clicks to perform simple tasks because Myspace keeps taking you to advertisement pages where you have to click on “return to myspace profile” in order to continue what you’re doing.
- You visit someone’s profile only to have your eyes bleed because of terrible page layout with non-matching designs and font colors.
- Your experience is hindered because of intrusive banner ads that either talk to you or try to reach out and block your view of what you’re trying to look at.
- You read yet another news account about how some child predator using Myspace has abducted a little girl or that some hoax myspace account has caused a teenager to commit suicide.
- You’re frustrated with the fact that Myspace doesn’t allow you to post your contact info, meaning to contact someone you can only use Myspace’s glitchy Instant Messenger, message/email system, or wall commenting.
- You’re tired of seeing Tom stare out at you from millions of friends lists and just wish he would change his fucking profile picture.
I have a MySpace, Hi5, Ringgo, Facebook and Friendster account. But I really can't pay attention to all. I am more active in Friendster than any other.
I'm not just sure if "that guy" can lure a lot of people to delete their MySpace account on January 30, 2008. Let's wait and see.
And by the way, do you January 30 would be permanently declared as the "International Delete Your MySpace Account Day"?
