myspace mobile siteMyspace have just launched a new version of their mobile website designed for many handsets. Those popular amongst are the: iPhone, Android and Palm WebOS users. The now-improved site at m.myspace.com offers quick access to your profile, including comments, your activity stream, your status, your inbox and more. Also available is a button dedicated to your photos, which makes it easier to browse through your albums.

However, the most notable of the new features is the built-in instant-messaging function which makes the new mobile website a communication tool in addition to being just another social-networking app. As i said the new version of the mobile website is aimed at alot of smart phones although is accessible to any phone with internet access, the new site is specifically designed to take advantage of features present in the advanced web browsers present on those devices. Users visiting from other phones will still visit the older site, which itself was revamped at the beginning of the year, with a new look designed to make it more closely resemble the original, desktop-based website.

Myspace have said that, 75% of its user base accesses the mobile web site, so im guessing this could explain why they’ve focused on updating the site first before updating the web based site along with the apps. However, it’s likely that the majority of their mobile web visitors are those without expensive smartphones, and so are being redirected to the older site.

So are you a myspace user, own a smartphone and want to check out the new site?

Simply from your mobile browser visit: m.myspace.com. The new changes are live for everyone as of now.
