Social media is already well entrenched in businesses, with corporate blogs, Facebook pages and crowdsourcing projects underway. Anthony Plewes explains how – now that these tools are maturing – businesses can start getting real marketing results from social media. Fuzzy social media benefits are all very well but for blogging, social networking, crowdsourcing and the [...]
Internet video has come of age. We watched for years as people tried to find a way to make Internet video useful. Sites like Movie.com were going to let us all watch movies over the Internet, but that was premature because we were all on dial-up at the time. Movie.com drifted into obscurity. Now, with [...]
Having personal profiles at websites like MySpace, Xanga or Friendster is fun. There’s nothing better than expressing yourself, connecting with old friends and making new friends in the process, from all over the world. At SpaceGravy, we are well aware that MySpace is a place for friends. Unfortunately, however, we also know that not everyone [...]
Okay first of all this isn’t about adding all the ‘best’ (and cheesiest) bells and whistles to your MySpace layout to turn it into some kind of online equivalent of the dashboard of the Atlantis Space Shuttle. This is about creating a truly kick ass MySpace layout by adhering to a few time-honored web design [...]
Like it or not, MySpace is huge. I was kinda hoping it would be over by now, but it isn’t. I just checked, and according to Alexa, it is number 6… in the whole world… According to the widget I have on Netvibes, I am not in the top 100… thousand… yeah, not in the [...]

I run MySpace.com marketing campaigns on a daily basis and wanted share some real-world experiences and tips. I’ll start with an embarrassing story. *Worst Meeting Ever* I was working on a marketing campaign with a client, and he was interested in getting his company on MySpace and using it as part of his marketing mix.

As the end of 2006 approaches, it’s clear that MySpace has spawned a cottage industry of sites supplying add-on content or media sharing services for profile owners. Many of these sites have seen phenomenal growth this year while at the same time questions loom around how to monetize. It’s interesting now to look at the [...]
Slightly modified version courtesy of “Worst of MySpace”, and yes I may be guilty of one or two.
I have to admit I’ve done a complete 180-degree turnaround on MySpace. Once believing the site – as well as the whole social networking phenomenon – was a fad facing extinction in light of the next Flavor of the Year, I’ve come around to being a big fan. I’m much more bullish on MySpace than [...]
Certainly the most popular way to decorate a MySpace page is to add a photo – these are typically used for backgrounds, direct placement, contact tables, and comments. MySpace makes it easy to upload photos yet many users turn to external photo sharing websites to host their pics. In this report we look at the [...]
If I had a dollar for every time I had a person say to me, either in person or online, “Hey John, you should start a MySpace account–it would probably be really cool, LOL!” I would probably have about $57. When someone says that to me, I normally go on a spiel very similar to [...]
Believe it or not, MySpace sites can be pretty. I dug around the muck that is the trash heap of designs and found some that are actually gorgeous!
A community mapping website, in our definition, is a service that gets its members to map and define places. Through crowd-sourcing, these sites are building a database/directory of local and nearby locations that their users can discover and visit. Why is this important? We all know that search advertising is the fastest growing industry in [...]
Instant messaging has become a part of daily life on the web. I use several different services depending on what I want to do and who I want to talk to. AIM is great for keeping in touch with old friends, Meebo or eBuddy for signing on anywhere, and Skype for business interactions. I use [...]

I was recently invited by Jason Calacanis to A Small World, the uber-exclusive social network (don’t ask for invitations, it’s a privilege I haven’t been granted since I’m a newcomer there). This has prompted me to think about a number of issues relating to social networks in general. In this entry, I will try to [...]
