Wal-Mart to Launch MySpace Non-Competitor

This is just nasty.

It’s a quasi-social-networking site for teens designed to allow them to “express their individuality,” yet it screens all content, tells parents their kids have joined and forbids users to e-mail one another. Oh, and it calls users “hubsters” — a twist on hipsters that proves just how painfully uncool it is to try to be cool.

Social networking site that isn’t social. Nice.
I hope they’ve paid shills to go in and make content so it looks vibrant.

    Ew. I am so bothered by this. And yet I can’t resist the low, low prices…

    Will there be a greeter when you log in? “Hello and welcome to School Your Way”
