Neat New MySpace Stuff!
A work related entry today, since we have new things on MySpace worth talking about.
- MySpace IM plus Skype was released this morning. It is literally “MySpace plus Skype” – to steal the description from the site: Talk to your friends on IM for FREE, call cell phones right from your PC, and even get your own local phone number and voicemail!
- Aaaaand Friend Updates are out. People are calling it our version of the Facebook “activity feed,” but I think it’s closer in functionality to the AIM Buddy Feed (people love to think Facebook invented this feature, but I’ve had my various updates from my blog/flickr/digg/delicious showing in AIM/AIM Pages ever since we did the Buddy Feed ages ago). You have full control over who can see what about you, and over who you want to see updating about what (preferences are here). We’re very excited, I think people are really going to enjoy the feature, especially since if you don’t want to use it, you don’t have to. Completely up to you.
