The New Myspace is now open for business. That is, if you've gotten your invitation. It's really easy to do. Just drop by the New Myspace and type in your email address and in a short time they will send you your invitation.
The site looks great and the number of members is building. The design is unique. Once you've created the type of page you want and chosen a user name and password you can use the search function to find just about anyone whose music is on the site. Then, you can also choose to connect with other artists, friends or fans. The site utilizes large thumbnails which seems to lend it's self to the touch screen technology of most hand held devices. The news stream scrolls side ways. I think this is done to include as much of what has been posted by your connections.
The music players rises up from the bottom of the screen when you mouse over it, which in my opinion is a lot nicer than the pop up player which was sometimes hard to keep track of. And, unless you're using the radio feature, it plays only the tunes listed on an artist's profile.
The design of your profile allows you to add a photo and a cover shot that serves as a back ground for your entire page. Underneath your profile picture you can access your music, mixes, connections, photos, videos and events. Directly below that is a pencil icon. Clicking this will allow you to make a post to your stream.
On the right side of your profile you can add your bio. Below that you is a total of your those that you've connected to as well as those who have connected to you. The page also includes your location and a list of your top eight friends
To the left of you music player controls are icons for the home page, your profile, your notifications, and your messages. There may be a detail or two that I've missed, but on the whole, I think that the New Myspace does everything that it claimed it would do. Music is definitely at the forefront and it is easy to connect to what ever it is that you like. The best way to find out what the New Myspace has to offer is go there and get an invitation, so you can begin
