New Media Power List - MySpace.com - where you can have a Million Friends

Posted by Marshall on July 31, 2006 | Link It

The Wall Street Journal profiles the Moguls of New Media today.

"On the popular Web site MySpace.com, members set up profiles with information about their interests and then network across the site, recruiting other members to link to their pages."

But there’s someone with the screen name "Forbidden" that claims to have 1 million friends!

"As one of the first 15,000 members to join the site, launched in July 2003 (MySpace now has 96 million members), she (Forbidden) built an early following that grew along with the site’s membership."

"A 24-year-old cosmetologist who until a few months ago worked at a makeup counter in a mall, she now has a manager and a start-up jeans company and has won promotional deals for two mainstream consumer brands."

Here’s a list of the New-Media Power List that includes David Nevue - a musician who I bought an ebook from almost 4 years ago - I had no idea he was so popular - all of this happened after I bought the ebook which focused on Music and the Internet.
