MySpace – Too Much Web Presence

10 07 2008

I have too many profiles on too many sites.  I spend the first couple of hours every morning between them and email … BBC News Website … WordPress … Facebook … and and and …

I am Mr. Web 2.0.

Well, yesterday, two of my online friends whom I’ve been chatting with for a little while convinced me to add them as friends on MySpace.  I’ve had a MySpace account for years, and I’ve done very little with it.  Mostly, I get random invites from women I don’t know who 99.9999% of the time are really just advertisements.  So, I’ve never really bothered much.

But, when I added them, I thought, okay … if I’m doing this, I may as well put in a little effort.  So, I updated the profile, which makes me more interesting there … like any site …

Today, in email … I got this lovely missive:

Hey dont know if i can interest you, but ive been looking for an older gay man such as yourself to be my “teacher” and show me everything sexually with a man. And you look perfect. im 22 and totally for real..i hope i hope i hope your interested.

Charming.  Thank you Jase and Julio. 

(I politely declined the offer.)
