record7.com LLC To Launch newsClicker On MySpace
Fresno, CA (PRWEB) April 11, 2008 -- record7.com LLC, today announced that it will launch newsClicker on MySpace (http://www.myspace.com/356331301), the world's most popular social network. newsClicker is famous for allowing webmasters to customize current and breaking news of their choice to be displayed on their website. That same functionality has been designed for the MySpace community with an attractive and easy to use application that is extremely customizable. Empowered by MySpace's newly announced Developer Platform (http://developer.myspace.com), record7.com LLC was able to easily build, test, and ultimately deploy newsClicker.
newsClicker allows people to display the news they want and the ability to filter out the news they care less about. If you absolutely love Pro Football and only want NFL related news to be seen on your profile than you have that choice, but if you love all sports than you can choose the option to display all sports related news on your page too. That's just one example. With newsClicker the options are many, and that's what newsClicker is all about. Letting people choose the news they care about. MySpace profiles are an extension of their owner's personalities and interests, and newsClicker promotes that idea.
MySpace first introduced their Developer Platform site on February 5, 2008 beginning a one month application development period allowing companies including record7.com LLC, time to build and test their applications in a secure environment before going live to the MySpace community.
On March 13, 2008, MySpace launched the public beta of the Application Gallery (http://apps.myspace.com), enabling broader testing of approved applications by allowing public installation. MySpace members can now discover and add new applications from a variety of categories, including newsClicker, to both their home and profile pages.
"Bringing newsClicker to MySpace users will, allow people to customize the current news category of their choice to be displayed right on their profile page," said Rex Howell Jr, president of operations, record7.com LLC. "The cool thing about the newsClicker application is that users can easily manage it from their backend home page and make changes to their news category choices on the fly."
As with all MySpace Developer Platform applications, newsClicker will be able to safely access publically available profile information including a user's friend list, interests, photos & albums, video, as well as status & mood. newsClicker will have real estate in five places within MySpace including:
? MySpace application profile (users can "friend" the apps)
? Access to embed applications on the user homepage (inward facing---for you to see)
? Access to embed applications on profiles (outward facing widget---for friends to see)
? An application gallery listing
? A canvas page
"Openness has always been critical to MySpace's success, and the launch of the MySpace Developer Platform marks an evolution in our relationship with developers," said Kyle Brinkman, vice president and general manager, MySpace Developer Platform. "We're excited to work together with developers to create an enriched user experience through unique and engaging applications."
