RealVR and the Future of MySpace
May 15th, 2009 | by Jen |When asked point blank, “What is MySpace going to be like in five years?” Chris DeWolfe, co-founder and CEO of MySpace responded:
“You’ll see MySpace on virtually every site. And then, MySpace.com will be your home on the internet, where you’ll be able to get whatever it is that you’re really into – from your Gmail to your newfeeds. The other primary trend that we’re seeing right now is a big switch to mobile. And we’re working really heard on continuing it improve our music product.”
There is no mention of any RealVR activity. This is surprising as RealVR is the next frontier of social networking on the Web. It is difficult to believe the CEO of one of the most popular sites isn’t taking about it. RealVR might not be in the plans this year or even next, but certainly any 5-year business plan for MySpace should include RealVR. Not including RealVR in the future plans of MySpace could be a major corporate blunder. The opportunities in music and advertising are tremendous!
