QUOTE (by) - NEWS STATION NBC

QUOTE: "[MySpace] was once synonymous with young people and goofy home pages. Everyone had one. ... If you are under age 25, you no longer exchange phone numbers in a bar, you exchange MySpace pages.

But for the rest of America, MySpace is now synonymous with something else: danger. The name now evokes the thought of online predators. Schools around the country are holding MySpace seminars for frightened parents. Children are flying overseas to see adults they've met romantically through the site. The MySpace craze turned very dark very fast." —msnbc.com columnist Bob Sullivan, who dismisses MySpace's new security measures as a "farce," reminding readers that the only thing predatory adults need to do to get around them is lie (not a hard task for someone interested in such things as rape) [redtape.msnbc.com, 6/21/06]
