MySpace is launching a New Zealand site. Not a bad idea, if a little late. Three comments:

1: This is NZMusic’s loss - they failed to make the transition from cool Muso discussion board to cool social networking muso space.

2: Bebo already owns New Zealand, except last time I looked their ads were not yet localised.

3: Four sex offender stories on a site that hosts well over 100 million accounts is not a story. See Danah Boyd’s work for more.

    or maybe you are just not a teenage girl… My understanding is that Bebo owns the teenage market, and if you are right then MySpace has the older folk.
