Myspace The Walmart Competition Of Bboards?
I just finished reading this article over at the Admin Zone a day or two ago and I just wanted to take the time to repost it and start a discussion here for those of you not on that site or aware.
The orginal article: The Downfall of Mom and Pop Operated Communities? By: [Zoints]DChapman Quote:
So I wanted to start some discussion to see what most of you think? Do you think communities like Myspace are a treat? What about trying to get new members who might already be using myspace? Specially if myspace is your competition. Remeber how many of us are trying to create a "Myspace Profile"..... Discuss. |

You have to bear in mind that MySpace appeals to a certain demographic which tends to be young teens. There is also a large audience outside of MySpace which is maturer. Alas, I don't think it'll be too much of a threat in the long-run. Like everything else, the novelty will wear off.

I've really considered getting a myspace page and adding links/content from my site to try to draw some members from there....

Profile's are important. The more other people see it the more they work on there profile. The people who see it want one themselves. The profiles are going to be the most important part of my sites. It's the main reason I went with VB, all the great profile mods.

i believe myspace is a stage in the net evolution, but how permanent or longlasting of a stage, we shall see. another step in the evolution process is ning. www.ning.com which is an interesting concept. i'm sure someone else here can explain it better.
but didn't someone do a ning type community where members could start their own forum, but basically be a subdomain of that main forum? i can't remember anything these days. |
