MJB goes socialized

August 7th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Social | Synergy

Slowly but surely I’ve been working on the code and changing the backend to allow for our readers to join and have their own profiles, upload pictures, and even give you a chance to write your own entries.  Not everything mentioned is fully functionable just yet but in my spare time I will be implementing these features.  Spread the word as this site will be merging into a social platform for bloggers and content collaborators much like Associate Content and Squidoo.

If you’re already a member and would like to log in, click here, or click on the copyright symbol in the footer of our web site on any page. “©“.  I will soon have a log in form located on the side bar.

Edit: I have installed a login on the far right sidebar simplifying everything.
 

We have a new registration form for new users, too. Click one of the log in links and click on Register to fill out your own profile.

Myspace Global Redesign

REDESIGN AIMS TO BOOST VISITS AND AD REVENUE

By James Callan

Bloomberg News

MySpace.com, News Corp.’s social-networking Web site, will begin a global redesign next week to increase traffic from existing users and draw new ones.

The redesign includes a home-page makeover, navigation changes and an overhaul of the site’s search tool and MySpaceTV player, the company said Friday in a statement. The first phase begins Wednesday, the company said.

News Corp., which bought MySpace for $580 million in 2005, is seeking to increase advertising revenue on the site by attracting new users. The media company said in April it will miss a 2008 goal of $1 billion in sales for Fox Interactive Media, which includes MySpace. Last month, New York-based researcher EMarketer said MySpace may have lower-than-predicted sales this year because of the slowing economy. MySpace said “a major advertiser” agreed to take over the site’s home page on the first day of the new redesign. Company spokeswoman Dani Dudeck declined to identify the advertiser.

The latest MySpaceTV player will offer a new advertising platform for multiple ad providers and formats. The player also includes more comprehensive video-sharing tools and a wider range of language choices, the company said.

News Corp. Class A stock, which has fallen 13 percent this year, rose 66 cents, or 3.8 percent, to $17.98 in New York Stock Exchange composite trading.
