Hi,
I do have myspace account. Although I it's not the easiest website to use,
if you have a good knowledge of how to navigate the web with your
screenreader of choice you should do fine. The most difficult aspect of the
websites are 2 things.
1. Creating account. Because they don't have alternative option to their
image verification you simply have to rely on sighted person.
2. Music on profiles: many bands and even individuals have music on their
profiles. Once you enter someone profile, if they have music on it, it
starts playing automatically therefore if it's loud, which most of the time
it is, you're unable to hear your screenreader. One solution to this is to
disable music when on the site, this can be done in your myspace account
settings. Of course this means that when you are on a webpage for a band you
can't hear music, if that's what you want. Of course you can always
temporarily enable music.
As I said, apart from this it is not too difficult if you are reasonably
good with using your screenreader and it's navigational features. If you
have any specific problems or issues feel free to let me know and I will try
and help.

Hi list,
Do any of you have a myspace page? As a blind person, how easy/hard do you
find it to create such a page on myspace? Sounds so tricky to me so I'd
appreciate any help from those of you who have done this. Thanks.
Take care,
Lyn & Twinny.
