My Space, Blogger, and MSN

I've been having trouble all weekend with My Space. I can view my page, but I can't log in. I rarely get a login page. When I do get a login page it won't allow me to log in. It's been this way since late Friday night. I love the networking on My Space. If it was similarly done on MSN, I'd just do everything through my MSN site.

The Blogger site has been upgraded to the new beta version. I think I've lost all of my comments, but there hasn't been much action on Blogger for a while. I like it a lot better now since I don't know HTML. Blogger has always been reliable, but the new look adds some features that I like about the MSN site. My favorite upgrade is being able to rearrange all of the lists. Blogger is a great site for people who know HTML, but I'm a bit of a rookie so it's great to be able to have simple things like that.

I like the MSN site the best, but there are two major changes I'd make. MSN doesn't allow list rearrangement and I could really use that for my concert lists. The other major change would be the layout. I'd love to be able to add columns to fit higher resolutions so that you can put more at the top of the page to catch people's eye. The less clicking, the better. The less scrolling, the better. The only other change I'd make is a minor one and that would be to add a Calendar similar to My Space.

It's easy to keep up three blogs when I'm mostly copying and pasting posts to each one and updating the Calendar on My Space. The minor layout changes I make on occasion aren't a hassle, either. I believe it's good to be a part of a few environments for various reasons. Mainly, you will only meet some people in certain places. My Space has been a great area to meet rock bands and fans. I've even run into a couple of old classmates through it. Blogger is a great place for another network of friends that I've made through concerts. This site was my first and still the best and I link to it from every place I post about music. I've had great people from Metal Sludge and the Waterstock site come here to view the pictures and a few people have hit this site from the Des Moines Register blogs. Each blog is good in its own way. Now if only My Space will let me log in!
