    by customizing your myspace profile, you can put links there going to your site. i think it is also being crawled by spiders (if im not mistaken...)

    myspace.com/username seems pretty friendly to me...
    I also have backlinks from myspace users for my arcade, I'm 100% sure it gives them :)

    It gives links. Myspace does have a seofriendly link pattern. But those links are worthless.

    Myspace is a great place for child molesters to find new victims.
    If you have children using myspace, as a parent you had best be monitoring what they say and what the receive.

    I dropped by MySpace the other day and that will likely be the last time I go there. I did not like it. It seemed like a cross between an FFA site and some wierd blogging publisher site. I decided to look for sites about sports and was disappointed with the results. They looked and felt dodgy.

    I felt like I needed to wash my keyboard and windex my monitor afterward.
