where did myspace go wrong?

[d-null]

I just went to check it, after not going there for months, and the server is so slow and/or the software so glitched that it reminded me of what turned me off of the place a long time ago....

did they cheap out on their servers? is the software poorly written?

it just hangs so I ended up closing the window and probably won't bother going back for another few months

I think, allowing users to include html on their profile pages plays a fair part in glitches and hangs.

Yea what vick! said. But my myspace is working fine.

They share a server with GFY.

[Why]

its a HUGE fucking website, making it work perfectly all the time is a monstrous task. it is also patchwork written too, which is partially responsible for some of the errors and hangs.

you know, i CONSTANTLY wonder about this too.

Vick's point is interesting and so is Why's - - - but seriously, i know they're big - but there are plenty of other huge sites out there that don't CONSTANTLY fuck up
