MySpace

I'm currently reading "Dummies Books For Dummies"... It's taking me a long time to get through it.

Soundcloud and Facebook.

+1 I agree. Everything else is obsolete..

Sheeesshhh! MySpace obsolete! Reverbnation? Soundcloud? Facebook? How many sites can someone follow, much less keep updated? The "easier" the web makes it to have your music heard, the more sites you have to patronize. If you had to pick one site, which one would it be? Ott

See, I think this is the wrong question. It's not "which site is best?" It's "Where is my target market hanging out?" and "Once they find out about me, where are they going to look to find out more about me?" Which means you need to know who they are and what they want, need and desire and how THEY want to receive it.

Facebook is a 'walled garden'; FB posts are not generally searchable on the internet, per se, only through FB's own search portal, and membership is pretty much required to search much of anything on FB.

Only if you're trying to use your profile to promote on Facebook. Facebook pages are fully searchable and you should be using your page to promote NOT your profile. Use your profile to stay in touch with your high school friends and your music colleagues. Use your page for your business.

I think the problem with MySpace isn't all the technical issues. I think it's dying no matter how they change it because it's just NOT cool anymore...
