Keri's Campaign
It’s official. Keri is running for princess of Fall River!
I’d better study up on political campaign strategy, because I’m her campaign manager.
Official announcement here.

The "announcement" appears to be a friends-only Myspace page.

Only kidding. But I still feel old. I should dig up some badly formed HTML from 1997 and create my own profile.

I'm sure MySpace is just the greatest thing since pie, or the crappiest thing since diarrhea, or whatever (I don't actually *read* these news stories), but I question whether it is truly so newsworthy. Or perhaps it is being scapegoated as a microcosm of the Internet - a weird shift from when the Internet was blamed for everything. Now only MySpace is blamed for everything. :)
Posted by: Julie at July 10, 2006 2:51 PMIt's being scapegoated, like when the Internet was blamed for everything.
However, mySpace is still pretty crappy. It's a mess of bad website design. And it's fun to ridicule the kind of stuff that you see if you hang around mySpace at all. But none of that warrants it being in the news so often.
