Ah, Myspace. The great social networking site that's taking over the web, attracting billions of viewers and yet still not turning a profit. Oh, it's a great way to meet people who love typing LOL! as much as you do. Heck, I've got a profile, but I won't be your myspace friend if I haven't actually met you.

I'm old fashioned that way. Besides, it's only a matter of time before you catch some sort of disease doing that.

But perhaps you've made friends with starwars.com, who (who?) appears to have a myspace profile page set up, and is befriending Star Wars fans aplenty.

Well, look more closely. Our site is darn friendly, but I'm afraid to say we do not have a myspace profile. So, if you think you're befriended us on myspace, think again.

This isn't really us.

There's some subtle signs if you look for them.

1. After 10 years, we've learned to spell OFFICIAL with the appropriate number of vowels.

2. We know a thing or two about what looks pretty on the Internet, and what doesn't.

3. Our music clearance extends to John Williams' score and not Kung Fu Fighting

4. Tom is not our friend.

5. It would stand to reason that I, Bonnie, and other Online team members would befriend our own site, and vice-versa.

6. Starwars.com is not an Aquarius. It is in fact, a Sagittarius.

So while you're networking -- which I believe consists of sending endless personality quizzes back and forth -- be sure to retain a little bit of skepticism next time you befriend an offical site.
