Web Hosting

(Posted: 8/27/06 7:57am)

Web Hosting? What is it? Why do you need hosting for images, graphics, layouts, and anything else needed to be hosted for MySpace. Well hosting, and dedicated hosting services are needed because MySpace will not host your images, other than the 8-12 you are limited to. Why? Because hosting images takes alot of internet bandwidth. Not to mention some of your layouts that you want to use have rather large images that need to be hosted.. This is what can speed or slow down the internet. Hosting on something say as ImageShack. This is just a hosting solution for you the end user. Your could, if you have a lot of things you want to host, could resort to hosting on some other dedicated solution. If you are making money, paying for a hosting solution is probably a good route to go. Or if you are a GURU you can provide hosing for yourself. It might be wise to host on a Linux server so that you don't gave h4x0r3D.

In the past days, MySpace has reached a milestone. 100 million users.
103,983,671 to be precise (at the moment).
That just means that there are more layouts, backgrounds, glitter graphics, and ratings to be provided to the MySpace community.
If you need layouts DrPimp is your place.

MySpace Domain Site Shutting Down?

(Posted: 7/25/06 3:35am)

The MySpace legal team has sent out Cease & Desist letters to the owners of domain names and web sites which use the MySpace name. Sites such as MySpaceCity.com, MySpaceAdds.com, and MySpaceSupport.com have received such letters which are threatening legal action against those sites for use of the MySpace brand in the domain name.

This may be a case of big boy bullying and intimidation since most of these sites do a good job of differentiating themselves from Rupert Murdoch’s MySpace - in line to be the Yahoo/MTV/Google/Blinkx of News Corp. Ironically, such sites offer tools and downloads to a very loyal MySpace community including layouts, graphics and image hosting.

Here is a copy of the MySpace Cease & Desist letter as sent to MySpaceSupport.com:

MySpace, Inc. is a Delaware corporation (”MySpace”) that operates an online community under the federally registered trademark MYSPACE (Reg. No. 2,911,041).

It has come to our attention that you are operating websites under the domain names www.MySpaceSupport.com and www.MySpaceTalk.com. We are writing to demand an immediate halt to certain ongoing illegal activity.

You are illegally using the MYSPACE mark in your domain names and on your websites. Your websites offer visitors, among other things, MySpace support and discussion forums, codes, tutorials, and toolbars to allow MySpace members to personalize their member websites. MySpace has not authorized the creation of any of these features or the use of our federally registered trademark.

You are also illegally using the MySpace logo on your website.

Your activities violate various federal and state laws, including without limitation trademark and trade dress infringement and false designation of origin under the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1051, et seq., and trademark dilution under the Federal Trademark Dilution Act of 1995, 15 U.S.C. § 1125©.

By this letter, MySpace demands that you and any of your affiliates, officers, employees, agents, or other persons or entities acting in concert with you or at your direction, immediately cease and desist from the activities described above in connection with your website or other products or services. Without limiting the foregoing, we hereby demand that you remove the sites www.MySpaceSupport.com and www.MySpaceTalk.com from the internet, cease using the name “MySpaceSupport” and “MySpaceTalk”, and relinquish and transfer the www.MySpaceSupport.com and www.MySpaceTalk.com domains to MySpace.

Your activities are causing and will continue to cause MySpace substantial and irreparable harm. You will be liable for the damages suffered by MySpace, and will be subject to penalties, fines and even criminal imprisonment.

MySpace Backgrounds and Free MySpace Layouts Available to Bloggers and Social Networkers

(Posted: 7/20/06 1:40pm)

What photo to use? To blog or not to blog? Music or no music? What about all the negatives I’ve heard about? I asked these questions and many more when I created a profile on MySpace.com and joined 89-plus million “friends” on one of the Web’s most popular networking sites. Blog and MySpace layouts make social networking more expressive. MySpace backgrounds are free and easy to create with the help of a new website has been launched to help social networkers find MySpace backgrounds and HTML tools to make their blog or MySpace layouts look more attractive. A banner ad running on Myspace.com and other Web sites used a Windows security flaw to push adware and spyware out to more than one million computer users this week. The attack leveraged the Windows Metafile (WMF) exploit to install programs in the PurityScan/ClickSpring family of adware, which bombards the user with pop-ups, spyware, and adware.
