Justin Timberlake's latest attempt to revive Myspace is Myspace TV

by Nicole Villeneuve

Justin Timberlake meant business when he became a part owner of Myspace.

The fledgling company has just announced a partnership with Panasonic to bring Myspace TV to your home this year. Timberlake says:

“We’re ready to take television and entertainment to the next step by upgrading it to the social networking experience. Why text or email your friends to talk about your favorite programs after they’ve aired when you could be sharing the experience with real-time interactivity from anywhere across the globe? As the plot of your favorite drama unfolds, the joke of your favorite SNL character plays, or even the last second shot of your favorite team swishes the net, we’re giving you the opportunity to connect your friends to your moments as they’re actually occurring. This is the evolution of one of our greatest inventions, the television. And, we no longer have to crowd around the same one to experience it together.”

What I think he’s saying is that Myspace TV is just one more way for us to not have to ever leave our homes or interact with real human beings! It will also apparently have an app, too, so you can go out alone or with people and still watch TV and stuff with your contacts on your mobile device.

Myspace TV is scheduled to launch in the first half of 2012. [via The Daily Swarm]
