What did google do to Myspace?

Ages ago I hurd alot about google buying myspacec but the offer fell through? or somthing

can anyone tell me what happened with google + myspace?

 

first ive heard of it, where did u hear that at?

 

I got told about 4 months ago but rememberd today

 

Wasn't that Microsoft?

 

Nope, deffo Google.

 

Here is the link from Gigaom about the possibility that never happened. Fox Media/Rupert Murdoch still owns myspace. There was talk last summer)6/2007.

Btw I thought Google wanted Facebook

 

ugh, I wish they did buy it

 

Google doesn't needs Myspace, it already has Orkut, which is doing really well.

 

Why? What difference does it make?

 

I've never heard of Orkut Plus, I would rather have MySpace on the hands of Google

 

Never hurd of Orkut before??

 

because it's gone to shit ever since fox bought it
it was possible to make $100k per month (no joke, I know a few people who did) from myspace alone
but now, almost impossible (nothings fully impossible)

and now people are censored a lot with what they can put in their profiles

and yea




OH, also knowing google
like with what they're planning / are doing with youtube
revenue sharing anyone?

I could easily obtain a 100k friend account, and... yeah
I could only imagine how much $$$ I'd make if I posted a few bulletins per day

[more to come, just gotta go eat ]

 

Google did not buy it ? Now I am going to buy Myspace

 

If you have a Gmail account. Than click on your settings it should be in the drop list of all the Google gmail things, even down to a link to adsense/adwords and the checkout and blogger.

 

Good things never last forever. I can remember too when people made so much just from MySpace, but people got carried away, started spamming which attracted more spammers and made the market over-saturated

 

Indeed this is true. And plenty of spammers with phishing sites.

 

It’s a social networking site, though it’s only accessible to those who have Gmail accounts. Its quite famous in Asian countries

 

I guess we all need to get ready for the next big hit website, just like YouTube and Myspace.

 

I think it was Fox Networks who bought it at first for like 300mill, for its advertising space. Then google bought it...

not sure. whatever is going on, I know that Tom is SUPER RICH.

 

Ummm I dont really think Google bought myspace. To my knowledge News Corp(Rupert Murdoch) still owns Myspace.

And the answers over at Yahoo Answers says that TOM owns Myspace. ROFL
