MySpace China, Germany, and France This Summer?

Posted on by John Yunker

According to TechCrunch, MySpace could launch a half-dozen non-English Web sites as early as this summer. Says the blog, “MySpace co-founder and chief executive Chris DeWolfe was quoted by the Financial Times yesterday and said that the first localized, non-English versions of MySpace will be available this summer. The company has designated 11 countries to target, naming specifically only France, German, China and India.”

Here’s the current MySpace global gateway:
