Justin Timberlake will attempt to bring MySpace Back??

The Video Experts: Bring Your Community to Life with Video: Justin Timberlake will attempt to bring MySpace Back??

Justin Timberlake will attempt to bring MySpace Back??

MySpace had been sold for $35 million to an advertising network called Specific Media. Now, the company says singer Justin Timberlake will take an ownership stake in MySpace and play a role in its future. Timberlake and Specific Media plan on focusing the site on entertainment, aiming to make it the place to go for original shows, videos and music.

Did his role in The Social Network influence this new venture?

Timberlake said in a statement.
There’s a need for a place where fans can go to interact with their favorite entertainers, listen to music, watch videos, share and discover cool stuff and just connect. MySpace has the potential to be that place, Art is inspired by people and vice versa, so there’s a natural social component to entertainment.”
   
MySpace has a cleaner look and the MySpace logo is nowhere to be found on their front page?
Do you think an Artist like Justin Timberlake can help Myspace make a comeback.



Timberlake song"SexyBack" 
became his first number-one single 
on the Billboard Hot 100.

Are You Ready? Social Media Day is June 30!!

The tradition began on June 8, 2010 when Mashable invited the world to "celebrate the revolution of media becoming a social dialogue" on June 30, 2010. See original SMD logo to the right.

Victoria, British Columbia was the first city to proclaim Social Media with Vancouver, British Columbia following with an official proclamation. This year San Carlos, California and the state of Arizona have officially declared Social Media Day on June 30.

This year is resounding with a bounce and a bowl. Mashable is hosting one event in San Francisco at House of Air, an indoor trampoline park, and one event in Williamsburg at Brooklyn Bowl.

If you're not near San Francisco or Williamsburg, don't dismay!! Host your own Social Media Day next Friday! People have registered over 1,386 Social Media Day Meetups already! Use the hashtag #SMDay on your promotions (Twitter, Instagram, Flickr and YouTube) and register on the Mashable Meetups Everywhere site.

Let us know!
What are your plans for Social Media Day?
Will you be hosting a celebration at your community?
