MySpace is combining social media and portals into a social portal.

Five-year-old company, profitable "since [they] turned the lights on."

40% of all online moms are on MySpace. They're online 11 hours a week.

"As usage shifts to social networking, there is no longer a race to build destinations but constellations."

This has become a sales pitch. I&39;m not going to blog as much about that. I can only take so much. My tweet on this: "MySpace keynote devolved into tedious sales pitch really quickly. Plus, while she&39;s talking, I&39;m checking Facebook. #ommasocial"

This got some fun responses on Twitter:

Now she&39;s telling the OMMA Social audience how the social graph works. So glad this is groundbreaking.

Got 13 million downloads of a Chevy Tree planting widget where you have to water it every day. Okay, I&39;ll blog that.
