MySpace to Open Doors to Developers

Posted on January 31, 2008 by Adie News, Social Media 4 Comments

Facebook Developers, Internet Marketers, Online Entrepreneurs get ready for some more traffic as MySpace is opening its doors to software developers allowing them to create games and media-sharing applications.

MySpace are going to formally launch their “Developer Platform” next week, but are already allowing Developers to sign up now. The tools have been developed with Google and will allow programmers to create programs similar to those used by millions on rival site Facebook.

The success of Facebook Apps has obviously got MySpace guys thinking its time to let Developers in, with nearly 15,000 applications already written for the site its got to be a positive move. Despite FaceBooks popularity it still lags behind MySpace in terms of overall users.

MySpace has around 200 million registered users, compared to 63 million who use Facebook. MySpace was bought by Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp for $580m in 2005. Last October it announced that it would join OpenSocial, Google’s platform designed to allow developers to build applications that will work on any website. (Snippet courtesy of BBC NEWS)

The tools which should be available from 5 February 2008 will allow developers to build applications that make use of the MySpace member profile. Amit Kapur the CTO of MySpace has stated developers will also be able to make money out of their applications.

I should hope so too!

    I’m very interested, but really do not like the MySpace model to the way Facebook works. They appeal to different demographcis in my mind.

    Will be interesting to see…
