Well here is my opinion on myspace. So many people have a myspace and yet there is alot of people that use it for slap spaces. Which for people that dont know is a myspace that is made to make fun of people. well myspace is a wast of time and peolpe that use it can do what ever..Cuz i dont really cre what they put. And now people are looking for myspaces for Collages..Like my cousin couln't get into a collage because her myspace said offensie thngs....Ugh i hate Myspae....

MySpace to you is like a good mixed drink... you think it's just for kids until one day you wake up and it kicks your butt. :-) This is how I feel about MySpace. Yes for kids. No issues with safety, etc. My issue is with the quality of traffic and that places like Technorati are now indexing MySpace blogs as if they were on the same level as other blogs. Sleeping Giantisms.

Aaron, I'm checking it out right now. Personally, I never paid much attention to MySpace. I actually thought it was solely for kids, so I never devoted time to exploiting the traffic.

I would imagine they were redirecting pretty non-qualified traffic from MySpace to the advertiser's websites, and with the amount per click advertisers pay, be sure they're watching carefully. At least Yahoo kicked them out personally, so that was a nice touch ;)

Darren: I'm not passing judgement on YPN. I am running YPN ina number of places and have no beef with them. Historically, I have a beef with MySpace (search my archives) and to me this is good news that MySpace is going to take a hit on this.

I hate to say it: but before jumping to any conclusions, sometimes webmasters aren't completely forthcoming about the reasons their website is banned. YPN has been very good to me, so this probably influences my decision.

I agree that myspace is the suck; i hate it. But is it really OK to ban a publisher from using YPN simply because of the source of traffic? It just seems grossly unfair to me.
