Re: FIRST Myspace

Without reading the replies --

Myspace is a terrible idea. Very bloated, not intuitive to navigate unless you've been to it many many times, ridiculous amounts of people put a song blaring right when you load a page, and custom off-color low-contrasting backgrounds make most profiles hard to read.

When you want to read about a FIRST team, you want to READ about them, not be distracted by extraneous crap. Facebook has done a great job of this (sans applications, but that's more a privacy thing imo) as well as a good job with the photo tagging idea.

The problem with a wiki is that you have to host the photos yourself. At that point you might as well just go on the wiki and add a brief blurb about your team with a link to your website.
