Isn't myspace still running? Nothing is stopping you from forcing your friends to use that site
Edit: guess not, lol
It is nothing like its former self. Rupert Murdock did to MySpace what Elongated has done to Twitter, but at a much faster pace. Imagine if Muskrat bought Twitter and then deleted the user databases the next day, that's what happened with the $570M buyout of MySpace. It went from $570M to $30M in less than a year.
It's mainly a music thing now.
The personalized pages and everything that made it so popular are long gone.
Myspace suffered a ton of data loss they didn't know happened till it was too late while moving cloud services. https://mashable.com/article/myspace-data-loss
Because you can't customize your own page anymore by copying and pasting spaghetti code from someone else's layout, so the fun is no longe there.
