NBC Launches a ‘MySpace-alike’
NBC has launched its own MySpace lookalike social networking site, MyNBC.
According to the site:
"Ok, but what is myNBC? We’re glad you asked! myNBC is gearing up to be your one stop shop for exclusive access to NBC shows and characters. Think of it like a super fan club, except you don’t have to leave your sofa to join.
You like Kenneth the Page? We’ve got Kenneth the Page. You like behind the scenes secrets from cast and crew? Yep, we’ve got that too. And the best part? If we don’t have what you’re looking for, just send us some feedback and we’ll try to make it happen.
See what we mean? myNBC is all about you guys…so sign up or log on and let’s get this party started!"
It’s about time! what took them so long?!
Rather than create a myspace page for fans to visit why not build a site full of all sorts of official pages and draw the fans to it?!
This could really work. If they give the stars and the cast, crew and shows their own pages on the site it could really, really work.
Hopefully it would be managed well too – I’d expect it to be, being run by a big network like NBC ‘n all.
I can’t help but think they might have missed the ‘myspace bubble’ though.
It’ll be interesting to see how this shapes up
