Today is the last day to make your bid on MySpace, hurry

MySpace has been dead to us for a while now, but there’s still a chance someone could revive it from officially flatlining.
Mega owner News Corp. is accepting initial bids on the failing social networking property until the end of today, lowering the minimum required bid to $100 million from the $580 million they acquired it for in 2005. So far, current interested parties include Bebo (!), and a “Chinese internet company.”
In February, News Corp. made the website’s books a little more accessible, and the number of suitors declined. A deal will apparently be announced by June. Pretty much no one will care because guys, MySpace is probably going to be given away to Bebo. “Just take it.” – Tom
