I want to compete with www.myspace.com (Can someone teach me how)

Expand Post »
Hello I wanted to compete with myspace.com because they are monopolizing the computing industry, and I am indeed jealous.
I wanted to know if anyone here knows a lot about database programming, and can help me learn how to program something that has the looks and feels of myspace in its entirety. I know this is a lot to ask for, but I thought I might just go on and ask, because I have nothing to lose, and I do believe someone is out there who can help me. I am a very good marketer and I know I can take myspace.com down the drain if I get help from the right person.

So basically I wanted to know if someone can instruct/teach/show me me over Aol Instant Messenger, My screen name is: [CHINCHASTE]
How to program something exactly like myspace (not including their logo/and branding)
I will do my own graphics. I am well versed in HTML and designing, I'm just not good with the programming aspect.

I AM WILLING TO PAY through paypal whoever can help me, but whoever can help me for free would make me happier and I will over much more than money can buy in the long run. I understand this is a ridiculous post, but I thought there might be a miracle.

Please contact me through e-mail at: chinchaste@yahoo.com
or at AOL MESSENGER @ CHINCHASTE

I also have a phone number I can provide if anyone is really interested in helping me.

I am positive I can make it happen. I have a great big mouth, I can sell Raid to an Ant. Personally I can market it better than them. I am hungry for this. Please help me.

I think you are focusing your energy on the wrong plan. A site like myspace doesn't get coded in a week and learning how to code doesn't happen in a week either.

If you are truly that confident on your persuassion skills, why not associate yourself with one of the dozens of sites already on the same boat as you and work on marketing any of those sites.

I'm already working on a similar project myself because I hate myspace with a passion. Frankly, I don't understand how myspace has become so popular. I have never seen a website with so many broken "features" that don't even stay consistent among other users. I'm still designing the structure of mine, drawing all those UML diagrams I hated in school but did indeed become handy occationally.

On "attack of the show" of G4 tv last night, they talked about myspace and how its become the dominant in that market, yet how poor it really is when compared to competitors. So why does everyone still use it? Noone knows.

Even if you have the money to develop a site and maintain campaigns to promote it (sorry, bu I doubt it) I don't think you can start a company based on jealousy and competition as your main source of power to make it hapen.

What you're asking for help developing is feasable to code. However, it would most likely take dozens to hundreds of hours and a lot of experience in a back-end web development language such as PHP. Certainly not something someone could explain to you over AOL Instant Messenger reasonably.

If you are serious about this, delve into a programming language such as PHP, ColdFusion, ASP.NET, etc. Try coding a small project at first. With time and dedication, you'll be able to achieve your goals. Good luck!
