New Media Articles

There were a couple of articles on USAToday.com that I thought I would share with you on MySpace, Facebook, and YouTube.

I found it interesting that a recent research study says that half of users on MySpace are over 35 and only 30% are under 25.

Myspace had 56 million unique visitors in August
Facebook 15 million
Friendster one millon

The other articles is on YouTube. According to the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and other leading publications, YouTube has been recieving offers galora this past couple of weeks. Most recently Google has apparently offered 1.6 Billion for the video site. Do you use YouTube? Do you even know what it is? If you are at all interested in the new media I am sure you have an understanding of how amazing this service is. If not, you will soon. If Google doesn’t buy them Yahoo or Microsoft will. They all have video services that need YouTube.

Check out this great blog post from the tech writer at USAToday on the speculation around You Tube.
