But I also ran into a new site that is growing, http://www.txtms.com.

With Tagworld web 2.0 and Viacom content – I think we have a winner here :)

Given that Viacom just acquired ratemyprofessor, it is obvious that they are going after school/college kids from a different angel than MySpace. I bet if facebook were to have some reasonable price tag, Viacom would have acquired them in a heartbeat. Now, I think facebook will wait for the right guy until it internally collapses.

That's only my humble opinion.

Who do I have to talk to at Mtv to straighten these guys out?!

Tagworld has great tech. but no brand. Why not team up with a company that has bad technology but a great brand great content and direct access to the all powerful TV screen? I think it's an interesting partnership and could be just what both companies need. People that don't see that opportunity are short sighted in defining Social Networking as MySpace instead of the myriad of alternative iterations that exist.

TagWorld appears to have nice technology. TagWorld has a weak brand/name. Why not take the good and leave the not so good. Now lets see what Viacom can do. I think they need a new brand to go with this. I.e. don't just slap TagWorld tech onto MTV. We'll see.
