"You already have tons of friends and family, and maybe even that special someone too... Now what?"

When I saw this my reaction was... "I don't know, go on with my life as usual? Why is this being pointed out to me?"

Then I see "here's something that can help". Help with the fact that I have friends and family and maybe that special someone? What is this, a place for contracting hits?

Also, the signup button doesn't look like it fits with the rest of the site visually.

It's an interesting idea, good luck with it.

I guess there's a loss of context then. To me the main reason ppl join friendster and myspace is to meet new friends (who typically are only online) hence - "You already have tons of friends..." so what's the point in myspace? - here's something u can use

I guess we need to tweek it

well thanks for the feedback - if anyone has suggestions on this one please let us know
