MySpace Apps Moves Out Of Beta

Duncan Riley

8 comments »

MySpace Application Gallery, MySpace’s app directory which launched in limited beta back in March, is now fully live and open to the public.

The MySpace application gallery allows users to browse applications and integrate them into their MySpace page and profile, giving what MySpace describes as “a more engaging and entertaining online experience.”

The biggest difference between todays launch and the beta launch is a link on the main MySpace page to the app page: minor in words but major in promoting MySpaces apps to MySpace’s user base. Users will also have one-click access to the Application Gallery from their home page through their individual control panels.

Since the beta launch, the MySpace Application Gallery has resulted in over 2.1 million installs from over 1,000 approved applications.

    I got approved to make apps but never did because our startup required too much time. I still don’t know if they allow 3rd party site access through their widgets. That would be my only interest in making a MySpace widget. To portal our site through myspace.

    Personally, I kind of hate to see this. The one “nice” thing about MySpace was that you didn’t have friends constantly bothering you with silly stuff like you have on Facebook. While Facebook was nice for a while, now it seems to do nothing but get me hammered with stupid time wasting requests from silly apps friends have installed. I think I’m about to block those requests, you can do that can’t you?
