Ok, what I'm trying to do is put my myspace blog on my website, but still be able to update it from Myspace. Is there an easy way to do this?
I'm not sure how you would possibly be able to do this, unless myspace support rss syndication or whatever... then you could pull it up on your own site.
But, as far as I know, this isn't really possible. You could try some in depth google searching.

Myspace supports RSS, but, like most RSS services, it only provides a brief summary of the post, so that wouldn't do for importing your entire blog. I heard speculation that MySpace might open up an API, similar to what Facebook did, but for now it seems to be just wishful thinking.

What I did notice from looking at an RSS feed from a MySpace blog is that it will give you the first line or two of the post, the title, the author, and a link back to the original post plus its comments. So if you actually wanted to put the entire blog on another site, I don't believe it's possible. But if you wanted to simply have a subject and preview of each post, with a link back to the main post, that could be done. Unfortunately, I don't believe it would fall under your "easy way to do this".
