MySpace Now Available For All Mobile Users
Social network addicted mobile users can now enjoy surfing MySpace from their cellphones without the need of a special customized application or service provider.
Fox Interactive Media, which oversees News Corp.’s Internet properties, said it also plans to roll out versions of FoxSports.com, the gaming site IGN, AskMen and its local TV affiliates in the coming months that will work on cell phones that can access the Internet.
The company said it also plans to offer a mobile version of its Photobucket picture sharing site in coming months.
The company already offers premium, subscription-based versions of MySpace through AT&T Inc. and Helio wireless services. Those versions include special features integrated into specific handsets, such as uploading cell phone photos directly to a user’s profile page.
The new version set to launch Monday will work on all U.S. carriers and will allow users to send and receive messages and friend requests, comment on pictures, post bulletins, update blogs, and find and search for friends.
Will this impact anyone? I’ve noticed more of a social shift from MySpace (and its HORRIFIC layouts) to FaceBook. Which social service do you use?
