all you have to do is find a market niche that is directed to emo's and they'll flock all over it, then you sell it for tons of money. just look at myspace

happened a while ago, before the free promotion happened (which ends at the end of the year)....

they have sort of integrated it into their service...but not that well...

for every 1 that gets bought for a lot of money, there are thousands that just disappear...

Someone is probably going to buy myspace at some point (when they find a way to make money off it)
