By Adnews Staff
Social networking website MySpace Canada has launched a classified advertising service called MySpace Canada Classifieds. The service, located at <http://canada.classifieds.myspace.com>, is being operated in association with electronic commerce firm Oodle. The free service is intended to allow MySpace users to buy and sell products and services within their circle of social contacts. "The growing prevalence of social networking sites such as MySpace Canada has enabled a new type of online classified service to emerge," said Susan McGill, executive director of sales, marketing and business development at MySpace Canada. "By partnering with Oodle, MySpace Canada has reinvented traditional classified services and created a safer and more social marketplace for users to buy, sell or trade items, on a local or national level."
