I'm going to have to disagree with you here, Tuttle. Flash 9 won't be able to help the gack that is myspace, the only thing that can is fire, and lots of it.

MySpace is dorky, but my wife has a profile. All the kids invite her to be their friend 'cause they don't know she's keeping tabs on what they're doing! It's the only thing MySpace is good for.

Never say never. You've have already spoken of the-site-that-must-not-be-named.

Its like an open inventation. You have advertised the name of ...site... and now have increased its association with linuxquestions.org by +1. A google quote search reveals a disturbing 6000 disturbing hits.

You're only feeding the monster.
