MySpace is a social networking website offering an interactive network of blogs user profiles groups photos and an internal e-mail system. According to Alexa Internet as of March 2006 it is the world's fifth most popular English-language website and the eighth most popular in the world[1]). Note that this is based on exceptionally intense usage by a relatively limited number of visitors many more than five English language sites have a higher "reach" measurement that is they are visited by more different people each day. MySpace has outstripped competitors such as MSN Spaces Friendster and LiveJournal to become the most popular English-language social networking website with higher traffic and roughly 75 million registered accounts. It has become an increasingly influential part of contemporary teenage culture especially in the Anglosphere. MySpace has 250 employees and projects a 2006 revenue of US$20M.

Prior to the creation of the current social networking website the MySpace.com domain name was registered in 1998 to an online storage and file sharing firm. Registration was free and users were able to obtain a small disk quota which would gradually increase if they referred new members to the site. Due to slow service and a lack of revenue the site shut down and sold all of its users' information in 2001.

Prior to that use MySpace.com was home to a web design firm.

The current MySpace service was founded in July 2003 by Tom Anderson (who is an alumnus of both UC Berkeley and UCLA) the current president Chris DeWolfe (a graduate of USC's Marshall School of Business) the current CEO and a small team of programmers. It was partially owned by Intermix Media which was bought in July 2005 for $580 million by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation (the parent company of Fox Broadcasting and other media enterprises). In January 2006 Fox announced plans to launch a UK version of MySpace in a bid to "tap into the UK music scene".

The creators of MySpace have hosted many parties in Hollywood Jacksonville Miami Orlando New York City Chicago Boston San Francisco Seattle Hawaii and McAllen Texas to support the site.
