Interesting article in Valleywag about Myspace.com and some interesting facts most consumers probably aren’t aware of.
2. MySpace.com is Spam 2.0. MySpace has spawned an incredibly successful twist on the age-old art of self-promotion, allowing–even encouraging–the marketing of everything from bands to businesses on their site. Essentially, they’ve opened up a channel through which to solicit and promote everyone and everything, most importantly the individual. The whole site is, in essence, a marketing tool that everyone who registers has access to.
It’s hard to argue with that point as well as others made in the article. MySpace.com is apparently living large on a made-up ethos.
This could be the case for untold Web 2.0 companies. But it shows us the truth: good old-fashioned spam (aka marketing) worked in building the huge following.
