There’s room for a competitor, but MySpace does some things well. Here are some thoughts on this post.

• MySpace’s users are mostly 13-25 years old.
• Its main appeal is that it’s sprawling out of control.
• News Corp is starting to reign in aspects of it.
• Some think this may cause its user base and visitors to simply move to a new place.
• Sometimes there’s too much traffic to the site, and people can’t login.
• The site returns errors during peak hours, and has ’scheduled maintenance’ which angers users.
• A 23 year old artist gets regular work and commissions from MySpace. It could be a good place to develop a presence for a web design or blog templating business.
