fmylife.com

So a friend of mine told me about this hysterical website called fmylife.com. The premise is simple, anyone can get on there, write a few sentences about something awful that just happened to them, and then the rest of world gets to laugh at their misfortune.

At first I was under the impression that this was just a random website that my friend had found. However upon being at the library last week studying, I quickly became aware of the fact that several other computers also had this website up on their screen. So then I was just under the impression that this was a website that had become the latest craze at our campus alone, however, on facebook I have now seen 3 different people mention this website in their status that I know from places other than Miami.

So, I thought that it was worth mentioning. This is just another website that people can go to and spend a good 30 minutes wasting time, instead of doing their work. If we potentially had the possibility to advertise albums on this website, I think we could definitely reach a large audience. Those that write on the website seem to vary from high school age to those that have just started families. The advertising also doesn't seem to be from any large companies, so I would suspect that because the website hasn't gotten to be all that large yet, the advertising prices would be pretty cheap. However, as I mentioned, this definitely seems to be one of those websites that nobody knows about one week, and suddenly is a topic of casual conversation the next. So if possible or deemed worthwhile, we should potentially jump on this train soon.

Regardless of whether or not WMG advertises with them though, I highly recommend checking the website out. Its super funny, and definitely makes you realize that no matter how bad your day is going, someone elses is definitely worse.
