VentureBeat: MySpace wants to friend your television, but do you?

rkorba · 10 months agoincredibly smart, and a great way (apropos the earlier, solid, VB article on the "demise of the Times") for Newscorp (and other media co's) to really get a lot of pop out of their properties. One can imagine everything from FoxSports fantasy groups watching games with a chat and league widget to myspace and viacom doing a deal for Mtv, to the Times, Journal, etc on their products and venues (like CNBC, etc.).

Bryan Bennett · 10 months agoI tend to agree with Eric on this one. Why would I want MySpace on my TV when it's a lot easier to just pull it up on my laptop while i'm watching TV. Also, CBS has learned with their interactive viewing rooms that TV tends to be an asynchronous event meaning that not too many people want to interact while they're watching the show. Instead they want to talk about it when it's over. Sports could be a little different as evidence by some of the ESPN forums during games, but not sure if MySpace can really make headway there.
