Myspace: godsend or the devil?It's been good to us so far, but who knows what it will turn into in a year? The dating ads are a drag. It feels a bit like a bathroom stall, but hooking up (with music lovers, that is) is great!
Do you have an iPod? If so, who's on it right now?We don't, but Zeb does. And being a world traveler, he has a ton of the best music you've never heard of. Vinyl and cassettes still rule!
