Cute and to the point - did you know that the css style for your friends network is defined by:

.redbtext

Thus, you add:

.redbtext:after {
content: " billion";
}

to your Myspace profile and instead of showing 93 friends, say, it will show, 93 billion.

Neat, eh? I found that goodie over at Hacking A More Tasteful MySpace. You can see another usage of it at the Rich Hermit’s profile too.

Keeping track of your children on MySpace…it’s truly a hero’s journey!

As your children get older, it’s only natural they’ll start gravitating over to MySpace to network with their friends.  You can’t protect them from it!  If you don’t allow Myspace at your home, they’ll simply log on via public libraries.

MySpace is a fact of life for kids….it’s your job as a parent to ensure it’s as safe as possible.  Thus, here are some useful resources for you regarding teaching your child smart Cyberspace surfing.
