MySpace have announced that they will allow users to make their information available to other websites - which means MySpace members will be able, if they so choose, to share any info or content in their public profile with other web services like Yahoo!, Twitter, eBay and Photobucket. The company's COO Amit Kapur told reporters: "This is an unprecedented move to further socialise the web and empower users to control their online content and data". Although MySpace's biggest rival Facebook isn't listed as one of the websites that MySpace will integrate with, the company's CEO, Chris DeWolfe said he was open to making his service share info with the rival platform, telling reporters: "This project is open to any site out there that wants to work with us. We are happy to work with Facebook if they want to join up with our effort."
