Unsurprisingly, it now focuses more on music news rather than connecting people with their friends (although the site doesn\u2019t seem to have been updated recently).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, you can still look up people via the search bar or \u201cPeople\u201d feature. If your profile is still on MySpace and is public, anyone can find you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-find-your-my-space-profile\">How to Find Your MySpace Profile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how you can find your MySpace profile:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1. <\/strong>Go to myspace.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2. <\/strong>Type your name into the search bar.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3. <\/strong>Scroll to the right until you see the \u201cPeople\u201d column. Unless your name is unique, you will likely see a list of people. Click \u201cSee More.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4. <\/strong>This is the hard part. Because the images don\u2019t seem to be working on MySpace anymore, you\u2019ll have to click on each individual profile to determine if it\u2019s yours.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 5. <\/strong>From your profile, you can see your old photos, connections, songs, etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-delete-my-space-account\">How to Delete MySpace Account<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know that your profile is still out there, here\u2019s how to delete your MySpace account. Note that you need your original credentials to be able to do so.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1. <\/strong>Go to myspace.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2. <\/strong>Click \u201cSign In.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3. <\/strong>Enter your login details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4. <\/strong>Click on the Settings button on the bottom left of the page and \u201cAccount.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 5. <\/strong>Click \u201cDelete Account.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 6. <\/strong>Select the reason you want to delete your account.
