Rather than trying to compete with Facebook in the market they already own, Myspace should embrace the crowd it has. The Miley Cyrus, Zac Efron and music crowds. Nothing wrong with those crowds. If I were Myspace, I would start a campaign that Facebook is the older crowd and play against it by positioning Myspace as the younger, "Cooler", where your parents aren't, place to be. Embrace and own what they are, not compete for what they are not. <em>LJ Jones's last blog post..<a href='http://blog.ljjones.com/2009/04/twitter-is-fad.html' rel="nofollow">Twitter is a Fad</a></em> I have to disagree with one thing.
