eBay & StumbleUpon – What About MySpace?

The Big Buzz is that eBay might or probably will acquire StumbleUpon.

Part of the big buzz is of course that Google lost out and is starting their own version instead.

Sure.

But isn't it amazing that MySpace is going social content by adding headlines from around the web which can then be voted up or down by its users?

As the Times Online puts it:

This approach blends elements of Google News and sites such as Digg and Netscape, which rely on readers to submit stories and determine their prominence. It also marks the site's ambitions to become a web portal like Yahoo!, providing its users with a front door to the Internet.
