MySpace vs. The Internet

Thursday, April 12th, 2007

I’d personally rather re-write Windows Vista in Visual Basic on an Intel 286 than use MySpace but what with MySpace now blocking Photobucket content I felt compelled to email their tech support and complain. Vote with your feet and all that even if your feet never go near the place.

My simple, pleading email went:

From: me
Date: 4/11/2007 7:35:29 AM
To: mscontact@myspace.com
Subject: Not Found (-4) - no subject found in database (-4)

Please reallow Photobucket content again. If MySpace
continues to block then I’ll have to find another social
website as I have lots of vested content in Photobucket
which would be harder to move than moving from MySpace to
another social network website.

And their reply ran:

MySpace - Ireland - MSContact
to myspace

Hey there,

That issue is currently being resolved. Please be patient.

Thanks!

MySpace

Unusual video

Tuesday, August 8th, 2006

YouTube, Blip.TV and PhotoBucket all auto-rotate my video. I realise shooting video in portrait mode is not that common but it was a fireworks show which is all vertical, not horizontal. These services could do well to allow me to rotate the video back. Very annoying.
