MySpace does news
Posted April 19th, 2007 by admin
The much anticipated MySpace News went live this morning.
Based on articles from TechCrunch and Reuters, the new site “resembles a mix of Google Inc.’s Google News, which collects stories and arranges them based on thematic similarities and Digg.com, which displays stories suggested by its readers and displays them according to their popularity ranking”. MySpace is utilizing Newroo, which is similar to Memeorandum.
The site doesn’t look too bad right now, especially for being in beta form. I was expecting something a little more extraordinary with the initial launch. It seems like a great concept, but I’m concerned that it has already been done. Hopefully with their large audience the site will definitely take off.
