MySpace Media Player

Yep - in order just to view my page this morning I had to download and install a new version of Adobe Flash.  Once that was done, the new version of the player was activated but there are still some annoying bugs.

MySpace says they are working to eliminate these problems . . .

Kenny, I agree that a little prior warning would have been nice.  I would also like to know exactly what the real advantages to this new system will be.  I trust that the changes will have real advantages for everybody (not just major artists).

OK this is side tracking a little, but do you really think that the Eric Clapton would have a MySpace site? I have seen his name and others famous stars as friends and looked at their sites. I honestly believe that they are false, just shrine sites put up by fans.

But I have been known to be wrong.

Well ive been known to be wrong on several occasions but........

Very cool, Russell!  Mr. Clapton's page is quite nice & I shall ask him to be my friend.

I just went to my MySpace and it seems the new player is loading faster and there were no 'yips' in the music.  The counters, lyrics, graphics, and other doo-dads are still all cattywampus.

My guess is that there are several very tired people working very hard to get the coding to work.  By this time tempers are flaring, pompous programming nerds are arguing, egos have been bruised, and everybody needs a shower.

I think this is probably his site.I only say this because I have personally had dialogue with my Guitar hero Walter Rossi on his forum and have checked out his MySpace site on his sayso.I did a post earlier on Walter Rossi and for those that did not see it here is a link to youtube from 1972. The man can play guitar.

His MySpace site is

Hi riddler - Everybody's counters are all wiggy now . . . or else we have all finally hit the big time!

I'm going out to celebrate tonight since I've had over 10,000 plays today.  It is obvious that the world has finally discovered my unique talent.  Funny - now that I have become and overnight sensation I feel and look just the same.

The big bucks will start rolling in now - and it's just in time because there is this Nigerian prince who needs my help.  I have been so worried about him - but now I can finally send him some money so he can get his inheritance and send me my share.

Day 2 & the MySpace Music player is still not right . . .

OK - So I just visited my own MySpace Music page. Seems that the coding gnomes have made some progress:
The 'total plays' and 'plays today' counters have been reset to 1.  However, I have had more than one total plays since the page has been up.

However; The lyrics won't show.  The song graphics and labels are all messed up.  I checked the 'Manage Songs' page and things look all wrong . . . . I am afraid to mess with anything for fear it will get even more screwed up.

I am embarrassed for the fine people who make MySpace work.  This was supposed to be big splashy surprise when they debuted the new player and all it's new functions.  Instead, it has been a big messy headache.

My play count has returned to what I think it should be. Everything else seems OK but I'll wait a bit before I post anything else.
Looks like they're slowly finding all the bugs and putting them to bed.
