But i dont think that is the point of the site. Facebook and myspace has virtually become a spam heaven for internet marketers and direct marketing groups alike, metrofunk seems to be making a stand against going that way. I actually HAVE been invited to the site during an early stage and it really is quite different than anything that is out there. The site seems to be more focused on real content produced by trendsetters rather than merely on the social networking aspect of things. Dunno, i myself am curious to see how they end up doing. -kev I think pretentious people will be pretentious regardless of whether or not there is some social network to facilitate that mentality.
