While users will grunt at the 3rd party adding software, they don't realize that half of the new media that they have discovered is because artists are using the tools. A user just sees a few pieces of spam and blames the bots. MySpace should have pick up on the fact that the 3rd party auto-adders are allowing an organic form of content sharing to emerge. A good example: If it wasn't for the auto-friend request, I would have never be introduced to this page: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=39302275 As dorky as it may be, I enjoyed reading about the original actor that played Michael Myers in the movie Halloween. (I can't read annual reports all the time!) And, from Tony Moran's page, I learned that there was something called "Fear Fest" happening nearby in March, so spend another 10 minutes reading about that (as well as requesting a friend link so I'll get a reminder when festival time approaches). I'm just not seeing this happen with Facebook, or other social networking sites that I have played around with. I don’t even know if MySpace realizes what it has.

I think that connecting through content is the key because it brings that added value to the relationship. Very good article.
