Is MySpace dead?

           Do people still even use Myspace? MySpace is a social network where you can keep in touch with friend or family, you can make an artist page to make it as a famous artist/musician,band, you can make it as a comedian, you could meet new people, and listen to music. (S.Hansell, 2009, p. n.d). Plenty of people who have MySpace have moved on to another social network, we all know as Facebook. MySpace no longer assigns you Tom as your first friend when you sign up, and the man hasn’t logged into the site since January 24. (P.Villarreal, 2010, p. n.d). MySpace use to be the number one social network until Facebook came along. 
           On MySpace you had to learn how to put html codes onto your profile to make it look cool. That was mostly everyone’s favorite part about MySpace, it showed off your personality. If you liked the color pink, your profile would mostly be pink. MySpace was purchased in 2005 for $580 million by Rupert Murdoch creator of a media empire that includes 20th Century Fox and the Fox Television stations (C.Lorentz, 2012, p. n.d). MySpace was sold for $35 million to Specific Media (J.Lowensohn, 2011, p. n.d). Not plenty of people use MySpace anymore. You don’t have to read that to know MySpace is pretty much done. You’ve likely noticed that all your friends and family moved over to Facebook and that more and more companies stopped using MySpace in their promotions. All the commercials, marking material,they all now only show Facebook and Twitter, maybe YouTube sometimes.
