I was Beatricing just yesterday about the many problems of MySpace, and one of my "friends" from California sent me a message about it. Apparently, all of California is having issues with blackouts and brownouts, and by nature of the fact that MySpace is based in L.A., they're among the most affected. It totally reminded me just how selfish I am, and also totally reminded me that there are other people affected by this more than just MySpace. For all the hundreds of millions of dollars they've made off of that site, they're still utterly powerless when the electricity fails. I'd forgotten that fact.
And no one grew into anything new, we just became the worst of what we were."
