Myspace cadet
La Cieca has decided to do as the (other) young people are doing and so she has joined MySpace. Won’t you visit her there?

Careful, cara diva!
More spyware there (rootkits, too) than there are spies in all of Verdi.
You must protect this gorgeous castle of song. (Plus, my daughter — your fan — just reproved you: she avers that you meet the WORST boys ever there: it’s where the modern book of love is the DSM-IV.)
Just imagine how divoon it would be if those Worst Boys Ever were titillated by La Cieca’s wit and gossip and became huge opera fans.
Sigh.
That is just what the neocons promised would happen if we ever went to Iraq.
Thank goodness no one ever listened to them.
Have to admit I’m with chimezatmidnight. This was my first venture onto Myspace, mostly just to say I did it. But I am a little anxious that the people (and computer viruses) one meets there are not exactly comme il faut. I love Parterre the way it is, and Unnatural Acts as well. I actually find video a little distracting — although I’ve already started petitioning for a video iPod if Unnatural Acts of Video is going to become a regular feature. And I have to admit… La Cieca, you do look fabulous. On the other hand, you’ve got a wonderful verbal flair. Why not let us appreciate it with wonders like the LibrettoMatic2000? (I’m an English professor, so that’s actually a professional opinion.) On the other hand, whatever you try to do, I’ll go along for the ride.
Cara diva,
There’s also another issue with myspace.
Everything which gets posted there becomes the intellectual property of Newscorp.
Images, writing and music included.
Rupert don’t buy nuttin’ to not own it.
You’ve just been ‘friended’ as they say by me, caro Cieca! I look forward to it!
WRT intellectual property on MySpace, here is an excerpt from their Terms of Use:
“MySpace.com does not claim any ownership rights in the text, files, images, photos, video, sounds, musical works, works of authorship, or any other materials (collectively, “Content”) that you post to the MySpace Services. After posting your Content to the MySpace Services, you continue to retain all ownership rights in such Content, and you continue to have the right to use your Content in any way you choose. By displaying or publishing (“posting”) any Content on or through the MySpace Services, you hereby grant to MySpace.com a limited license to use, modify, publicly perform, publicly display, reproduce, and distribute such Content solely on and through the MySpace Services.
Without this license, MySpace.com would be unable to provide the MySpace Services. For example, without the right to modify Member Content, MySpace.com would not be able to digitally compress music files that Members submit or otherwise format Content to satisfy technical requirements, and without the right to publicly perform Member Content, MySpace.com could not allow Users to listen to music posted by Members. The license you grant to MySpace.com is non-exclusive (meaning you are free to license your Content to anyone else in addition to MySpace.com), fully-paid and royalty-free (meaning that MySpace.com is not required to pay you for the use on the MySpace Services of the Content that you post), sublicensable (so that MySpace.com is able to use its affiliates and subcontractors such as Internet content delivery networks to provide the MySpace Services), and worldwide (because the Internet and the MySpace Services are global in reach). This license will terminate at the time you remove your Content from the MySpace Services. The license does not grant MySpace.com the right to sell your Content, nor does the license grant MySpace.com the right to distribute your Content outside of the MySpace Services.”
You’re only 30 years old? How on earth did you ever absorb so much, well, history?
Loved the profile.
