Couldn't help noticing in Oct 24 NY Times that 12,888 people have "friended" Hillary Clinton on MySpace. My spies tell me that only 1 person has "friended" George W. Bush. But that person, of course, is Osama Bin Ladin! As George says, quality beats quantity. And I am having a silly day.

Hi That's interesting. Also heard today (and have checked it) that a particular pop star, Brian Molko from Placebo, has a youtube video on 'his' myspace page denying it is his page. Can anyone make sense of that?
