Mark Windsor, a brick layer from down the road, logged onto his MySpace account today for the first time in 3 years, only to find that he had no friends in his friends list. Upon further investigation, it became apparent to Mr Windsor that everyone in the world had actually left MySpace, around the same time that people stopped “poking” each other on Facebook.

A stunned Mr Windsor, who still uses Windows ME, explained “I thought at first that nobody liked me any more. Then I realised that in fact, all my friends had just left MySpace, along with everyone else on the planet. I was a little bit disappointed, as I had just found a really good glittery ‘Thanks for the add’ picture of a cat that I wanted to post in peoples’ comments.”

He is currently trying to adapt to all the new social networking services. However, so far his only tweets have been of random html code.
