trying to understand how if AOL went downhill, and these Exec’s left Tsavo, how these people are going to change the fate of a sinking ship. Anyone care to explain this to me?

I’m not sure if I should be saying this because I’m also trying to do this, but should Myspace try to diversify and create other networks. Heck they could just buy up all the stupidspace copiers and expand their universe. Does collegespace.com exist?

Myspace just needs to stick to the music aspect of it. I honestly don’t know anyone who uses it for anything other than that these days… Maybe this guy can make a change, but i really don’t see people switching back from facebook.

Mike and Mike both seem like really smart, really experienced, non-egomaniac guys. exactly what MySpace needs at this juncture.

smart hire. people with strong user experience (UX) / design backgrounds belong in product leadership roles.

Tsavo, can we deadpool it yet? Execs don’t flee in droves from a promising company.

MM should do a good job infusing some solid product creativity and innovation at MySpace – always enjoyed working with him. Crazy at times, but always fun.
