About four months ago Trent Lapinski was hired by an online publisher as a freelance journalist to write an article detailing the history and business model of MySpace.com. Due to groundless legal implications, the article he had written was no longer to be published. Here you have the article published by Nick Douglas @
Valleywag:
1. MySpace is NOT a viral success.
2. MySpace.com is Spam 2.0.
3. Tom Anderson did NOT create MySpace.
4. MySpace's CEO Chris DeWolfe is connected to a past of spam
5. MySpace was a direct assault on Friendster.com.
