Obviously they are very similar... I love this site, but I really hate myspace. It's gotta be the professional photographs and beautiful people... I bet Tom hates MM.

I bet Tom doesn't care because the two sites have very different purposes.

There are some good finds on MySpace if you look around, I will be working with several of them soon. I will also say that the models and aspiring models I have contacted on MySpace have all replied to my messages, even if not intrested, which is more than I can say for several so called "professional" models here. Just like any other free site, MySpace has its good and bad.

Didn't they sell MySpace?
Is Tom the new owner, or he just didn't get a cut from the sale?

Model Mayhem : MySpace :: modeling agencies : mall food courts Speaking of mall food courts. I was at the mall saturday and boy oh boy, its like a photographers fantasy land sometimes.
On the issue of the thread. Is MySpace a pay site? I have been pointed that direction by a few models that have ports on there but can never see any photos. I was also looking into putting a port there but not sure. Is MySpace worth it?

The time i looked thru part of it, there were mostly girl who have web sites or web cams that i have seen all over the net. No real "Model" potential. I was in a chat about nikon (D70) and the site came up and a few said they had some solid good models from the site.
I think its a second rate scam site for web wanna-be models but considering the amount that people advertise it and promote it on sites is amazing. I figured it might be worth asking how it was, thanks.

Some people do use it for marketing, but not most.

Well how many people are members of this site and how fast is it growing?

Let's hope the weeding out process gets better and done faster on MM.
MM does accept member contributions.

But it might be because I write like this:

Honestly, I don't know how they write like that. The whole time I'm typing, it required so much concentration (It looks easy, but it's not...either that I'm stupid) that I thought I was going to vomit.

They are all over. Lots of different kinds, they just type what they want and it comes up that way.

i started on myspace, started modeling because of it. moved to MM, then OMP...but i agree, i like to know most of my friends on my list. you get to know more about a person than on this site though, thats why my MM page links to MS, it adds more to getting to know my character
