Are there benefits to joining myspace?

Is there any benefits in joining Myspace?

Yes... I joined My space over a year ago, I've now maintained a lot of contact with Friends & family. I've also made a business profile for my self, and marketed my site through myspace.
I even found some lost friend I had no idea how to get a hold of them, I just simply typed in their full names in a my space search data base. You can IM, Play music, build a profile.
It is fun!

its all about the friends...I have a friend on the east coast thati talk to him through and thats all I use...soits one of those things you use to talk to people you normally wouldnt talk to on a phone or anything like that
