The New Flatness

MySpace and Co. seem to have a vision as to where they want MySpace to be in the future.  Instead of just using the site as is, they are pushing the evolution of the social network.  Asking questions like what else can we do with this dense group of people besides just integrating paid search?  After only aquiring MySpace nine months ago it is good to see them making steps to continually evolve and change the service.

Thats what it is all about today.  Changing quickly and frequently.

Always look for the next space to push into.  FIM is doing just that with new ventures like Fox Atomic that I mentioned in my last post.
MySpace used music to create a user base and a social group that grows based initially on musical tastes.  That is what other purly music based services need to be concious of.  Music recomendation sites like Pandora, Mog and many others should think about something.

Why not use their users and join them to another service.

For instance; join GarageBand a music discovery service with a service like Dodgeball.

Push music discovery into an unlikely space.
