Shawn Gold Moves to Myspace

The guy that got to sell the ads at weblogsinc has moved on back to the next desk over – now that AOL's ad department has taken over his duties. He's moving onto myspace:

So what's next? Well, in my search for vocation nirvana, the first step is getting paid to think about the things I like to think about. As an amateur cultural anthropologist I like to think about social intercourse and was spending a lot of time on MySpace.com. So that's the second reason for leaving WeblogsInc and actually my next job, I have taken a gig as SVP, Head of Marketing & Content for MySpace. It is the perfect solution, now I have a job where I can hang out on MySpace.com all day and not get Fired. I can be an amateur cultural anthropologist by helping to define and shape the brand of, arguably, the biggest cultural phenomenon this century.

Another aspect of my search for vocation nirvana is finding the intersection of commerce and virtue-doing well while doing good. In this new position I will be able to use the influence of the MySpace brand to innovate in internet safety and get involved with some great causes–having a positive effect on our culture (corny, but true).

    Is that to take care of there new myspace site that is coming out? or the current one? Rumor has it that myspace is coming out with a better version of there site on another domain name starting march 1st it will be another social networking community site with alot more features. I guess to stay ahead of other sites coming out like myspace.com also i heard it will be called http://www.FriendWise.com i guess well just have to see if friendwise happens.
