It is too easy to scoff at MySpace and refer to it as the ghetto of social media. You are crazy to ignore MySpace, there is a vibrant active community of people engaging in social and professional networking. MySpace is a huge network with a lot of noise. You must work hard to cut through the excessive advertising and creative profile pages. The reward? An established network, with an engaged audience that does not object to advertising.
MySpace is second only to Twitter in noise and spam. Becoming a resource on MySpace may be more challenging than on other networks as a result. Because something is difficult, does that mean you shouldn’t do it? Really this is just an allocation of resources issue. If you have the time and resources, then yes, MySpace has huge potential for your social and professional networking.
Apply the same techniques of transparency and truthfulness on MySpace as you do on your other networks. It will take you longer to create a respectable profile, customization is a strength at MySpace. You can find your friends and share content, take the time to find bands and add them as friends and share their music. The core of MySpace is media and music, you must participate and represent with and for your people. http://www.myspace.com/sonicallstar
