Spaced out: "MySpace stole my magazine idea!"
We feel for Lamarr Watts. MySpace went and stole his idea for a magazine — get this — based on MySpace. The would-be entrepreneur tells us:
The crazy thing about this Myspace Magazine they are talking about publishing is that myspace got this ideal from me by looking at my page why can't companies like this work with people who really come up with ideal and not be a thief, I started this process last year and posted a page on myspace March this year under the name myspace.com/themagazine then I see this write up on myspace is in talks about publishing a magazine I have already begun the process on my magazine which is called "Inside Myspace Magazine" which has nothing to do with myspace the website I really think they are ripoff artist they look at peoples pages and get ideals on what they can come up with next I have sent them letters about what I'm doing and have not gotten any reply I have sent paperwork into the trademark office to trademark the name Inside Myspace Magazine So good luck and my the best man win.
The dude's determined, we'll give him that. Prepared to defend Lamarr (or just take cheap shots)? Leave a comment in the peanut gallery.
