MySpace talking ‘white label’ deals?

Can anyone confirm a report I got today that MySpace has been talking to folks about white labeling their technology?

I find this fascinating, expecially in the light of the new Facebook APIs and platform announcement.

We’re currently tracking over 60 compeitors in this space, so adding MySpace to the list - just makes it that much more interesting. I can just imagine IBM up against MySpace in a battle for - say the BabyCenter.com account - now run by Tina Sharkey (with Judish Meskill as a new hire.) BabyCenter is a Johnson and Johnson company. Just the sort of account IBM loves to handle.

But now that MySpace will be competing, lord know what happens to those 60+ entities - all who think they’ve got the white label solution for social networking.

  1. Marc,

    This seems too good to be true! If myspace is thinking white label this is the first sign IMO that they are willing to budge on their stance. Can’t wait to see how this plays out.
