MySpace integration with Facebook (and Twitter) is pretty straightforward. You just share whatever you want in MySpace’s Facebook-like update box, and your content will be sent to the social networks you authorized. Any shared content sent to Facebook from MySpace (such as photos or videos) appears as a status update on your Facebook profile with a link back to MySpace. You can share almost any shared content from MySpace you want with the exception of MySpace’s mood updates.
Once you authorize cross posting with Twitter and Facebook, these options will be enabled by default. So if you happen to be posting something that you don’t want to be shared across multiple platforms, make sure you uncheck Facebook and Twitter integration in the settings panel.
MySpace’s new functionality is part of yet another renewed effort by MySpace to maintain relevance in an increasingly Facebook-dominated world. The second-most popular social network in the U.S. recently refreshed its look that appears to borrow heavily from Facebook including a similar newsfeed and status update box.
This is how Myspace is trying to make a comeback and let people know they are still hip and relevant. Will it work? Doubtful. despite it being a valid attempt.
It has all the key features: integrating a popular news story, being self referential, humorous and contains rage-bait – should be perfect to embed in your brain that Myspace is still the cool place for cool people, right?
I still have no idea why Myspace never tackled video. When they introduced their Myspace TV site, I thought it was for sure at least supposed to be a Youtube killer. Turns out it was supposed to be a video feature and nothing more. wtf Myspace? You’re owned by Newscorp which owns lots of television networks. Why is there no cable Myspace channel? Reward original content from Myspacers, broadcast popular web series internationally, include an original show here or there and utilize all those garage bands who made profiles to promote their music by airing competitions, reality shows and playing their music videos. Its gold. but Myspace isnt interested for some reason… the fools. they’re letting themselves die.
I liked the commercials from the 90s but then in high school i went right back to thinking they are culty freaks and weirdos. As I matured though, I came to realize Mormons are pretty awesome. I wish the Mormons and the Gays could just get along cuz they’re 2 of the most pleasant yet misunderstood groups ever.
Mormon.org is running commercials and for some reason this is news.
Oh, now I remember the “some reason”:
Is it all just a plot to get Mitt Romney elected? oy.
Ever since I heard Nellie, the Filipino mother of my older friend JohnJohn, explain to me that Pee Wee Herman got arrested because he “got caught wiggling his weenie in public” (to which JohnJohn scolded her for using such graphic language), I was outraged not at the arrest but at the lack of defense by Pee Wee. An explanation at LEAST, please. but no. no word from the Herman camp.
Reubans says on his defense: “Had we gone to trial, we had ready an expert from the Masters and Johnson Institute who was going to testify that in 30 years of research on masturbation the institute had never found one person who masturbated with his or her non-dominant hand,”… “I’m right-handed, and the police report said I was jerking off with my left hand. That would have been the end of the case right there, proof it couldn’t have been me.”
On the late night comedians making fun of his arrest: I get that it’s their job, but I had already said the allegations weren’t true and felt I deserved the benefit of the doubt from them. Make a joke about me but also just say, ‘By the way, he’s been a friend of our show for many years.’ I was shocked people would kick me when I was down.”
And then he tells this amusing story of embarrassment: Two years ago I was on a flight back to L.A. from the East Coast and it was one of those newer planes where every seat is equipped with its own little live satellite television screen. … I look over to the bulkhead one row in front of me, and I see a TV monitor there showing my mug shot, which then morphs into a picture of Pee-wee,” Reubens added. “And I realize, ‘Oh my God, they’re showing my E! True Hollywood Story—live!—to every seat in this airplane.’ I felt as though I was going to have to jump off the plane.”
Remember Zach? Normally I hate Zacks that spell their name with a “chuh” at the end and pretend its a “kuh” but its impossible not to love this dude. He entered our lives when he entered to win his own show on Oprahs new television network. Here is his audition clip:
So disappointing that he didn’t get it and I dont know how. Course, I was also *this* close to getting a small role in Judd Apatows “Funny People” and that didnt happen either so maybe it’s a wider spread “rob the talented and deserving” theme thats going around?
Here is Zach in The Tortoise and the Chair:
UPDATE: Is he really doing a travel show anyway? Best youtube series ever? (mine not included)…
Long-running Nickelodeon animated series “The Fairly OddParents” will detour into a live-action TV movie for the cabler in 2011, starring Drake Bell, Jason Alexander and Cheryl Hines.
“A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow Up, Timmy Turner” takes the show’s 10-year-old main character and reimagines him as a 23-year-old (played by Bell of Nick’s “Drake & Josh”) who is clinging to childhood and his fairy godparents. Alexander and Hines, last seen together on “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” play the live-action version of godparents Cosmo and Wanda, who are voiced by Daran Norris and Susanne Blakeslee in their animated version.
Garfield. Curious George. Whats next? a Babbar movie? oh Christ…
Here’s a “blooper reel” of the Fairly Odd Parents, Pixar style. Watch and ask yourself why Alexander when Chris Kattan is so more the obvious choice.
Matt is back for the first time since 2006′s smash hit Joey, and — nah, i dont know why I tease the poor guy. I’ve always liked him and still do and this Showtime thingy is pretty amusing.
A poor girl (no pun intended) was attacked by some idiot in the projects who climbed into her bedroom and tried to rape her. watch the video…its funnier than the story sounds…
He’s climbin in yo windows tryin to rape people! hide yo kids and hide yo wife cuz they be rapin EVERYBODY out hea. don’t worry though cuz we gon fiiiiiiiyndjyu HOME BOY!
so you can run and tell that.
Thank goodness theres a song for this dude:
Here he is reacting to his internet celebrity status:
Antoine does not care about being an overnight internet sensation, he just wants to make sure that you get caught for trying to rape errybody in the community or so he can beat your ass.
I read a 6 paragraph speech on why someone alleges that this is a big hoax and its not really the kid typing but I dont believe it. Just letting you know the skepticism exists. I suspect the reason the ABC piece doesnt show her typing is because it takes her a long time…
Kings of Leon, which is a band (apologies to fans for not having heard of them) canceled a concert in St Louis because of pigeon shit… The Riverfront Times reports
After the Nashville band finished “Taper Jean Girl,” the third song of the set, it walked off stage. According to Hardy, the house lights stayed off for a short while and then went up, and then someone came to the stage and said that “due to concerns over the band’s safety, we are canceling the show. Please file out in an orderly fashion.” RFT photographer Erin Kinsella estimated it was “3 to 5 minutes after the stage went dark” that they made the announcement. She also noted that security was then beefed up near the stage.
Adds Hardy: “Everyone was convinced it was a hoax.”
Mass confusion ensued. The crowd started booing and chanting, “Bullshit!”; Hardy said the parking lot was full of honking horns and the sound of bottles being broken.
@doctorfollowill So sorry St. Louis. We had to bail, pigeons shitting in jareds mouth. Too unsanitary to continue.
@doctorfollowill Don’t take it out on Jared, it’s the fucking venues fault. You may enjoy being shit on but we don’t. Sorry for all who traveled many miles.
The RFT translates that that means a pigeon shit in bassist Jared Followill’s mouth. Richard translates that that aint no pigeon shit, thaz some bullshit. If in fact a bird crapped on a band member who happened to be in a position where the excrement entered his mouth, that is pretty gross, but wtf happened to “the show must go on”? You dont have to “like” being shit on to power through an uncomfortable situation in an outdoor theater. thats weaksauce, bro.
