Tom Anderson, who was known as "Tom from MySpace", "MySpace Tom" or "My friend, Tom", retired at 40 and is now a travel photographer.

He posts on social media under themyspacetom, and his Instagram bio reads: "Former 1st friend, Surfing, travel/photos, architecture-design, DogDad, SpaceX & CRISPR Investr, Life Extension."

The photographer, 50, who now lives in Hawaii, obviously travels extensively as he posts numerous pictures on his Twitter and Instagram profiles.

Often they are taken from exotic destinations such as Thailand, Bhutan and the Maldives

As of November 2021, he has an impressive 647,000 fans admiring his impressive photography.

According to Influencive in 2017, Tom said about his new work: "My passion for photography is what keeps me traveling.

"I have multiple homes in multiple cities, but Im not satisfied just staying where Im comfortable. I want to keep creating.

I wasnt taking photography all that seriously, I just wanted to document a wild scene.

"But when I loaded the photos on to my computer, I was hooked. I knew I wanted to capture more scenes around the world.

After retiring in 2009, he started building and designing houses.

Anderson collaborated with Chris DeWolfe on MySpace in 2003.

Now 55, DeWolfe quit being the CEO of MySpace in 2009.

He has been the CEO of Jam City, a video game developer, since he co-founded it in 2010.

Jam City has worked with Disney and Warner Bros, and in 2018 launched Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, which became the fastest game to hit $100million in revenue in Jam Citys history

Anderson was replaced as president in April 2009 by MySpaces new owner News Corp.

By 2010, he was no longer the default friend, and was replaced by a profile called "Today On MySpace", or "T.O.M."
