Thanks for the link! I agree that the comments in my post are the best part of it. I wrote mine driving back from an exhausting but fun weekend out of town. Which is to try to excuse myself for being a little snotty. I hope that doesn't discourage Cody Brown from following up.

Fwiw, the notion of myspace as “cyber ghetto” isn't fully Brown's coinage. I'm not at all saying he's misappropriated it, but it's worth mentioning that the social network scholar danah boyd brought the term “ghetto” into broad public view with respect to myspace at the pretty recent Personal Democracy Forum. She first heard it from fourteen-year-old named Kat from Massachusetts: http://www.danah.org/papers/talks/PDF2009.html
