Don't Believe Everything You Read (on the internet)

People obviously have a lot of time on their hands to create and update not only their own profiles, but to create fake profiles of some high-powered executives and professionals. An abuse of this system, people are putting up phony information with pictures, etc. for people like Martha Stewart and Bill Gates. While some people may think this is amusing, those professionals who are involved don't find it so funny. They are working with MySpace to get them removed asap. I guess social networking is just the next way of giving people a means to scheme...

And for those reading the profiles, who would really believe that Warren Buffett would have time to create a profile on MySpace anyway?
