myspace messanger

The public download for MySpace’s foray into the instant messanger world is now available for public use. Grab your copy from the official download page. The client closely resembles the appearance of AIM / Gtalk rolled into one. Hat tip to Jeremy.

    Please no

    OMFG! How could you post this without bashing it in anyway!?

    Seriously, this is pretty much pedophile heaven..

  3. As with just about everything else in this world, MySpace is what you make of it. I use it for staying in touch with my “real” friends (ie people that I actually know, you know, in real life) and regaining contact with old friends from my youth, high school and college. It’s also an incredibly powerful tool for marketing bands — I can tell you without hesitation that it’s been an incredibly useful thing for us, as we’re an independent band that has two EP’s out, and we have 3,000 friends, and that has led us to score a distribution deal for iTunes, a clothing endorsement, and several guitar endorsement deals.

    You just gotta stay away from the seedy underbelly. And Tom. Stay away from Tom and his Asian girl fetish.

    “Rockstar: Cool! Ask him if he’s really the man?” WTF kind of quote is that:? What are they promoting?

  5. Chad says:

    another instant messaging service I will never use….. ::cry::

  6. Mitchell says:

    lol

    Am I the only one who’s sad that it isn’t for Mac?

  7. Moises says:

    This application is worthless , it doesn’t even work .

  8. Don’t worry Mitchell. You’re not the only one.

    I, too, am sad that this isn’t for the Mac. And IE is required?!? But I and a whole bunch of people I know use Firefox to access MySpace, not IE. Maybe AdiumX will grab this protocol and add it to the boatload it already supports. Or someone can write a Firefox extension. hint hint. Oh well…

  9. Er….why, exactly, would you need IE? It’s a standalone application.

    But yeah, I do know people who are upset that there’s not a Mac version. Knowing MySpace, I doubt there’ll ever be one, either.

  10. Patrick says:

    Yeah Mitchell. I assumed previously that all Mac users were above the Myspace mess.

  11. fernyb says:

    Why dont peoeple use IRC instead?

  12. IMphreak says:

    why the hell didn’t they fix the IM that myspace already has?
    it’s been broken since myspace started …
    stupid Tom. I hope someone you love dies.

    try going to htmate.com then click on myspaceat school. it will automatically go to browse then click ok and you should be on myspace. this not only works for myspace but also for any website that is blocked by your school.

    Thanx
