BASKING RIDGE, NJ and LOS ANGELES — MySpace, the world’s most popular social network, and Verizon Wireless, the nation’s leading wireless service provider, today announced Verizon Wireless customers can now access MySpace Mobile on all Mobile Web 2.0(SM) enabled phones.

Mobile Web 2.0 subscribers can now click directly into the MySpace Mobile Web site from the Connect category on the Mobile Web 2.0 home screen, eliminating the need for customers to type in a URL in order to access the site. With MySpace on Mobile Web 2.0, Verizon Wireless customers now have the ability to edit MySpace profiles, view and add friends, post comments and blogs, send and receive MySpace messages – all from their mobile phones.

“Millions of MySpace users have Verizon Wireless phones, and starting today we’re giving them fast and easy access to our mobile site, at no additional charge,” said Brandon Lucas, senior director of mobile business development for MySpace. “Today’s announcement brings us a step closer to fulfilling our vision that every user has access to MySpace, anytime, anywhere.”

Ryan Hughes, vice president of digital media programming for Verizon, said, “Our relationship with MySpace helps us connect our customers to their friends – with MySpace available on our Mobile Web 2.0 service, our customers can take MySpace with them wherever they go.”
