New Delhi (PTI): Rupert Murdoch-run Global media conglomerate News Corporation on Thursday brought its social networking website MySpace to India -- a market already bustling with the presence of international giants like Google's Orkut and Indian billionaire Anil Ambani group's Bigadda.com.
Like other players already present in the market, News Corp is also looking to attract the younger generation in India, which is home to world's youngest population with over half of its residents aged below 25 years, industry experts said.
Indicating towards its target audience, MySpace announced its India launch with a slogan "Rock with MySpace.com" and said was marking its entry into the country with performances by three rock bands in Mumbai, where all the registered users of the website would get a free pass.
Websites like MySpace, Orkut, Facebook and Bigadda allow the people to chat with each other and have already become a craze among the youngsters in India as well as in other parts of the world.
MySpace has over 110 million users in the US and is closely followed by Facebook.
