What I am supposed to expect out of Myspace?
 
Okay, I think the first tip for me would be to not write trip reports, as it could turn into another chuddo disaster.

However, I never really got the "Myspace" thing until I'm hearing a lot of people preaching it. Huh?

Granted, I've hooked up with a few girls thanks to Facebook, but that's a little different. I knew the girls (or at least had seem them and spoken to them once or twice) before. I get the idea that a lot of these chicks who I meet are gonna be random.

So, what exactly should I expect if I do decide to get into this? I know absolutely nothing.

Leave the window open and just click around when you're at your computer. This way you'll come up near the front of searches (since you're "online"). Girls do search for guys all the time (most of my hookups come from girls who messaged me). I have much better chances when the girl messages me than when I message her.

When a girl does message you, cut to the chase about hanging out in real life after a couple messages. Usually my third message is the "lets meet up" message, after I've established some flirting. Once you're at that point, you're pretty much in.

The best part of MySpace is taking advantage of the law of large numbers. If you send out enough messages you'll get some responses. You can do this much faster than talking to girls at a bar or party. Plus rejection hurts less in cyberspace.

Something seems fishy, desperate, or both in sending out a lot of messages. I don't like making the first move anonymously [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

I've created the most boring profile I could that contains actual information. If this gets me laid I will proclaim it the greatest invention in human history and preach it's name from high on the mountain tops.

I just need some somewhat odd yet not frightening pictures...

Why the [censored] do you think people are on MySpace? To meet other people. So why would they be freaked out if you sent them a message?

Just be prepared to spend upwards of 3/4 of your life taking offcenter photos of yourself and then adding every crazy effect you can find in photoshop.

Dude. You are a freshman at UGA, right? You are surrounded by some of the best-looking coeds in the country. If you're going to use MySpace to supplement your normal pull, that's fine. But for the love of god, don't let this replace going out and enjoying the women in Athens.

i never thought i would like anything more than the facebook to talk to my real life friends, especially at college, but i really like myspace a lot more. you can meet a lot more random college whores on myspace, this is a proven fact. (at least for me, anyway)

um, no, I really dont find all that much exhilarating. I had one experience in austin that would indicate the opposite, but she wasnt some [censored] ditz chick, she was intelligent, hot, and stuff.

Maybe Im too in touch with my feminine side and such, but I enjoy connected sex much more. There are too many off variables in one nighters.

Oh well.

Cased Closed: Does your profile show up in searches yet? Mine doesn't seem to. If I don't get a lot of personal amusement out of this I will be severely disappointed.

If a girl messages you and doesn't have a picture of herself (ie she has a picture of a sunset or a lake) then she IS fat. 100%.

I just spent maybe 10 minutes going through it. It was difficult weeding out the spam (I searched "Nashville," and 2 of every 3 results seemes to be a band/manager/producer) and the results I did get were mostly either high schoolers or 40 year olds.

Maybe I need more practice.
