The Social Networking Weblog

CNN — Dec 25 — MySpace bills itself as a "place for friends." Increasingly, it is also a place for unfriendly attacks from digital miscreants on the prowl. Last month, MySpace inched past Yahoo Inc. in U.S. page views, recording 38.7 billion (comScore Media Metrix). MySpace recently formed a Content Assurance Team; employees post fake profiles on the site, pretending to be vulnerable teens or clueless adults. The profiles are designed to keep tabs on everything from sexual predators to spammers. FULL ARTICLE @ CNN
