I can do that as well as support local Missouri and Illinois family farms with @Dierbergs Homegrown.

Think of Dierbergs Homegrown as a Farmer’s Market inside of a grocery store. It has the freshest produce available locally. In order for the item to be considered Dierbergs Homegrown, it has to be picked, packed and delivered to their stores in less than 24 hours.

You’ll find everything you want from tomatoes to eggplant to corn to peaches and more grown by family-owned farms located in and around the St. Louis area.

Is Myspace Dead?


Myspace was one of the first social networks I ever joined. In its glory days, it was a bonafide meeting place where you could reacquaint yourself with old friends and meet new folk too. I have met some incredible people on MySpace, people who are still my close friends to this day. But more and more, I was getting tired of the endless spam and slowly migrated to Facebook and my favorite, Twitter.

I thought about completely deleting my page on MySpace, but there are a few individuals on there that I have no other way to contact them other than the site, so I opted to keep my page up and running. But I cannot tell you when was the last time I logged in or the last time I updated my status or changed my page around.

When it comes to social networking, is Myspace even a contender?

Facebook is on the top of the food chain when it comes to social networking. Facebook gets more hits than Myspace and Twitter, so right now it stands as the gold standard of social networking sites. Twitter, with its 140 characters or less microblogging, is arguably number two in this genre. Twitter breaks more news stories than CNN and Fox News these days, and I can see it overtaking Facebook in a year or so if it continues on this trend. But where does MySpace fit in all of this and most importantly, can it even help your brand?

MySpace excels in one main area, which would be music, and I can see it continuing its greatness helping break new artists and spreading the word of mainstream artists. But other than music, how can Myspace help a blogger like myself?

So, join in on the discussion. Do you still use MySpace? Do you feel it is still beneficial in the social networking genre?

    I think its popularity has waned considerably, but I do agree that is a great medium for finding new music/bands.

    Myspace is turning very niche, I think.

      I agree Paddy! Myspace excels with its music sharing and ability to upload music. A lot of new artists are being discovered on Myspace and I see it continuing to be a great method for breaking new artists.

    myspace is only good for music. I don't use mine much. Seems like a lot of my family memebers ages 14-20 still use it a lot

    Pretty sure Myspace was also my first social networking site as well. I was on from teenagehood on.. Then in college I was primarily on Facebook. I never check Myspace. Rarely check Facebook. It's ALLLLL about Twitter!

    MySpace is for kids only. Facebook is for older people. And LinkedIn is for Professional. So you see the trend? You start out as MySpace kid. Then you go to college. You join FB. Then after you graduate. You get a job at Goodwill. That’s where LinkedIn comes in.

    yeah myspace sucks. i think part of the problem is that we all wanted the old myspace when myspace was still alive… did myspace listen? no. instead they tried ‘improving’ it and tried making it more futuristic. now its too damn complicated. if they wouldve listened to what the PEOPLE wanted, facebook wouldnt of been the switch, and myspace would definitly not be as dead as it is now. i know if we had the homepage we did at first etc, isntead of this complicated pathetic excuse for a social network, id still be using it.

    Social Networks come and go. Before Facebook, it was MySpace, Friendster and remember Xanga? There is no guarantee Facebook will survive 10 years from now. Currently FB is the “thing to do” just like MySpace was a few years ago. Who knows, in a few years people might be talking about another social site such as Koowie.com as mentioned by TheCubicleChick’s blog about Koowie.
