This research is a collaborative narrative research which
combines the researcher's self-experience with Myspace

research papers published during 2006 to 2012. Both resources
would form a list of issues, that contains the important
evidences and conflicts happened in Myspace. These issues
could be used to explain Myspace users' preference which
could be similar to the user preference in other social network
