At first, I wanted nothing to do with MySpace -- just a bunch of teenage idiots blabbering on about nothing, right?  WRONG!

There is a huge amount of money to be made by leveraging the traffic flowing through MySpace and the 60 million members inside.  By building up your friends lists and your ability to post bulletin board messages, among other powerful tactics, you are able to "gather up" groups of like-minded individuals and then funnel that traffic to your own sites.  What you do with that traffic is up to you -- you can build up your own lists, market your products and services, or even market other people's products and services.

The key here is to look for the large streams of traffic and then step into them and siphon some off for yourself -- no matter how silly that original stream of traffic seems.
