"The Sun is planning to give its website a massive boost by tying it to the recently acquired and hugely popular MySpace.com community and networking site to create a "MySun" online readers' network.

"The plan, in its early stages, would allow readers to go to a MySun portal and create their own web pages, blogs, as well as share pictures and video clips with friends using MySpace.com software.

"News International, which owns the Sun and the Times, is understood to have considered linking MySpace.com with TimesOnline, the website of the Times and Sunday Times, but thought its older audience would not be as good a fit as the Sun."

Fan-fucking-tastic.

  • Do you think

    if everyone on myspace gave them pound they'd just leave it the fuck alone?

    restlessboy | 16 Mar '06, 11:15 | X
    • No

      They'd just be rich enough to buy the whole fucking thing...unless they did that already?

      However, if everyone on MySpace gave me a pound I'd build them a new independent site. HURRAH!

      • prolly not

        the number of users on myspace makes it a very good business opportunity, dunnit?

        Andreas @restlessboy | 16 Mar '06, 11:28 | X

        • I love it

          when I start a thread on something and everyone ignores it, and then someone else starts one on the same thing and people take notice.

          It does wonders for my self-esteem.

          Bastards.
