MySpace in context

I talked yesterday with recently added speaker Victor Keegan, from the Guardian, who told me that he is going to expand his presentation a bit from the topic that Bobbie Johnson was going to tackle - that is, how the Guardian has learned about and embraced online community cultivation. Victor is also going to try to put MySpace into the context of what is happening elsewhere on the web, not just from the viewpoint of a longtime (20+ years) journalist and editor, but as someone who is himself a blogger (and my newest Flickr contact). Considering the huge success that his newspaper is enjoying on the back of their web endeavours, I’m sure Victor’s going to show us all a thing or two to remember.
