# I'd love to visit, get some photos/sketches.

# It's just one of the places I plan to visit once I leave uni.
It'll probably take me a bit to afford most of 'em, like Iceland, and seeing as though I don't want to move out until student loan's paid off, that could be a bit of a problem.

# I know a few local bands who still use it
but I don't know anyone who still uses it for social networking. But I'll be damn impressed if they top Facebook, Twitter etc.

# I maybe wrong....
But i'm sure it started as just a social network blog. then they added the myspace music blog later on, and now that's what it's mainly used for.
