Nick Love from MySpace

According to a 2008 Nielson Online report, nearly half of the Australian population have social networking profiles. The growing popularity of social media provides more opportunities for how we spend our leisure time and can extend our professional networks.

In our exclusive interview with Nick Love, Business Development Director at Fox Interactive Media, he argues the key to the success of MySpace is that,

"it brings together people, both locally and globally - from all walks of life, content that is both informative and entertaining, and culture spanning fashion to comedy to politics."

With handheld devices powered by the Next G™ network providing fast 'on the go' access to web 2.0 enabled websites, the future of online social networking in Australia looks positive.
