Again, if you'd read my post, you'd realise I'm not saying there *is* anything wrong with that. Just that I (and apparantly quite a few other people) won't be bothered enough to do something with this.

Repeated again, since this seems to be going round and round in circles again: *we* don't care about myspace. It's *great* that other people do. Hopefully someone with technical clue *will* care about it, so that those who want to use it, can.

Hmmm so the root of the problem is that maemo developers are a different group from musicians who want to promote their music. I guess that's not so surprising.

Re: Where's the MySpace support??
 

Once again I am seeing people miss the point, and you people that say myspace is not used any more are simply ignorant to the facts. I to am in the music industry, every band has a profile and many use this as their primary web page. I am tired of people that the only social network in the virtual world telling everybody how it really isnt in the real world.

Well by that logic Nokia is dead as a phone platform, and by extension so is Maemo, People are leaving Nokia by the millions.

Re: Where's the MySpace support??
 

I would think myspace sucked to if my band only had 2700 profile views. And before you go there , the last time I was in Chicago I was at the Congress, and I will be at the Aragon in Feb or March. Why does Every body have to be such haters.

It looks like exactly what Chris is doing here, but some people here are more prone to interfere with his efforts than to be helpful.

Pixelpipe works with tumblr already, at least for photos. I don't know what other data they accept, so not sure on the rest.

Re: Where's the MySpace support??
 

I wanted to come around just to ask. Who's prefering Myspace over Facebook? Some bands, yeah. Not a big audience for the effort, that has to be put in such a project to create a neat result.
Maybe you should check first, how many people are interested in a myspace app? Maybe a poll?

Re: Where's the MySpace support??
 

Its cool. No hard feelings. In my Symbian blogging and community activities, I've found new friends all over the world, and have a wider view because of it. Facebook is big HERE, but not everywhere. My Indian and Chinese friends don't care for Facebook or MySpace. They like 51 and Orkut. So someone is always saying something is useless, when in actuality, social networks aren't venues. They're people. We need to realize 200 million or so folks don't want to move to Facebook, and stayed at MySpace for a reason. There is no king social network.

Facebook is for connections to those you already know or have established contact. MySpace is all about finding new people to network with, whether you know them or not, based on common interests, music, art, location, etc. They aren't comparable on many fronts, because they compliment each other. I use both. All of these social networks are different in their own ways.

Developers shouldn't always be so self serving. Think about the community, and ask how many would use it, and how many would be drawn to the community if we supported it. I'm willing to bet if we had some sort of special MySpace support, and we trumpeted it online and on MySpace, it would draw sales. Everyone wants a MySpace app for their phones, but if you have a Nokia, you're stuck with the full page or the mobile trash version. No in between.

iPhone has one. Blackberry has one. WinMo has one. Android has one. According to THIS REPORT, Symbian and WebOS has one that was in development almost a year ago, though I've yet to see it. But where's the Maemo one??

You can't always code for yourself. Sometimes you can work to draw more eyes to the ecosystem.
