The social networking phenomenon known simply as Myspace has an estimated 55 million subscribers and is one of the most popular social websites since the internet's conception. It has become a daily meeting place for hundreds of thousands of 15-35-year-olds, giving its users a platform for social networking, a place to connect with others of the same interests, track down that girl you had a crush on in High School, look up your favorite artists or brag to your friends about your excessive number of page views. Like any other Social and technological phenomenon, many others have turned myspace into a profit. Sites which cater to the excessive "pimping out" of the boring old default template into a personal expression of individuality are proliferating at an exponential rate. Why are there so many of these sites? Because the services and basic codes they offer are so simple that even a person with an elementary knowledge of networking and html can make them! In this article I will show you how you can make your own myspace, on your own and without going to all those "bling" sites. I broke it down into a few important categories.

Music: Instead of clicking obsessively from band to band to find the perfect song for your page, you can upload your own mp3's from your computer into a player with almost no effort.
Here's how: Go to a file hosting site that allows large files like filelodge.com and create an account.
Upload some mp3's to the site and then go to a site like gazzump.com and use the mp3 generator.
Copy and paste your file lodge URL's (the address your mp3 is hosted at) into the gazzump URL boxes, choose a title for the song and click "generate the code" at the bottom of the screen.
There you have your mp3 player that you can start, stop, rewind, fast forward and all other mp3 functions with no internet browser compatibility issues.
