Does any right minded person actually think MySpace will continue to grow once it’s littered with advertising, sponsorships and corporate pages born out of partnerships such as the recent deal between Seventeen and MySpace? Wasn’t the genisis and the success of MySpace based on its homegrown qualities? Perhaps the guys don’t mind the giant boobs on all those True models and maybe the girls will want to wallow in the importance of Seventeen’s crucial editorial issues. Perhaps MySpace users will become immune to these new ad tactics like they’ve become immune to most other online marketing tactics and MySpace will continue to grow in size despite its commercialization. Perhaps it’s all irrelevant. After all, AOL used to be where the cool kids hung out and that monstrosity is still around.
