Myspace is Still Kickin

Myspace is Still Kickin' Screenshot of the redesigned Myspace profile from the video preview The redesigned profiles, which can be seen in the recently released preview video, are a stark contrast from the white and blue theme of the Myspace long past. The sleek, modern make-over looks clean cut and innovative. Users will be able to create photo albums with corresponding music mixes, which can easily be shared with friends. The layout is reminiscent of Pinterest and Tumblr, with photos being the focal point of the design. It’s clear that the new Myspace is not trying to compete with popular sites like Facebook and Twitter. Users will be able to share content like photos and playlists from their Myspace profiles to other networks as well. The new owners, one of which includes Justin Timberlake, are hoping that artists will utilize this site to share music and connect with their fan on a whole new level. So, with this idea in mind, if artists motivate their fans to join, the new Myspace may just have a chance of becoming successful. Myspace has tried redesigns before and failed to regain their once huge following. However, this time around things are quite different. Essentially an entirely new website has been created. Only time will tell if it successfully wins the hearts of tech savvy music lovers. Like the new homepage says, “whether you’re a musician, photographer, filmmaker, designer or just a dedicated fan, we’d love for you to be a part of our bran new community.” Check out the preview video to see for yourself and request an invite if you’re interested.
