Sample pages for the new service closely resemble Yelp’s. On each business’ page, a block of basic information (phone number, address, map, price range) is followed by a string of comments with the name of the MySpace user who commented and a picture.
Like Yelp, MySpace and Citysearch will sell ads to local businesses that can run alongside its listings and user comments. MySpace will also place ads for national brands among the local content. So far, it has signed up Coors and Outback Steakhouse as the first advertisers.

Posted onAuthorTruXter

have you seen the new look of facebook?
Seems not many are happy with the new look.

friends you can have, are friends you already have.
