Don't have the next myspace idea, but I'm just throwing props to you for thinking outside the PHP / MySQL box. Not saying you can't build great stuff with that, but the powers of Java / J2EE containers are pretty sweet. Fuck Oracle though - those per-processor licenses are horrid.

Edit:

Just to add: The java libraries out there now; spring, velocity, axis2 -- fuck man. You can build a whole web-enabled ecosystem around that shit. Anyway, I could be wrong cuz I'm just learning that stuff, but it's definitely got potential over what PHP currently has.
