More MySpace news - I'm sure you're all breathless. The big news is that MySpace users who are over 18 will now have to know the email or first and last name of any 14- to 15-year-old member they're trying to contact. It's actually a pretty good strategy if the danger to minors comes from strangers. No word on measures to protect minors from parents, their friends, or others in their immediate community - the largest sourcs of danger, by far.
