If you have any doubt (or hope)
that humans per se is the the most advanced product capitalism is
trying to sell, then try to spot a serious difference between the
personal profile pages of blogs or myspace and the online catalogues
of shops.
FRIEND OR FOE?
are you my friend or my space friend?
The ceasessly growing degradation
in human communication reached a temporary peak with MySpace. Very
rarely had i the choice before to see such despair, desolation and
abjection in a modern phenomenon. People even thank each other for
letting them be their "friend". After revolution which tends
to mean "innovative product", friendship will no doubt sooner
or later stink of corporate, ugly aesthetics and meaningless, junk,
info or exchange of idiotic comments.
If there will ever be a science of an ecology of cyber space then
MySpace will be one of the very first to have people from greenpeace
chained outside its disgusting pages. Such a waste of information
and digital space is scandalous. This is the definition of polution.
True, people do get contacts through it. But then again life flourishes
in swamps and even sewage systems, but we still prefer (i hope) to
breathe the forest or sea air.
There is nothing yours in MySpace. MySpace will never be YourSpace.
And it will also look like SHIT. And all of your 23.162 friends are
IDIOTS.
