Last Friday, I had an epiphany that I was neglecting to tap into a market that would need my social media coaching. What market? MySpace! I decided to jump on the MySpace bandwagon to target entertainers in the film and music industry. According to All Facebook, I read up on
some new features for MySpace users. After launching Twitter integration, MySpace partnered with Facebook as well. MySpace has a feature for their users to syndicate their status update to Facebook. So, what’s the big deal? Well, to active this feature, you must allow MySpace to grant permission to access all your photos, video sand social information, whether you are logged into MySpace or not. But, why? No one knows but MySpace and Facebook.
This added feature seems cool and convenience, but this can pose a privacy issue.
My solution? Use Hootsuite, a social media dashboard, to manage multiple social networking sites. You can send all your updates and post to any social site from one location. The good news, HootSuite does not ask for your permission to access your personal information.
