Sprint Nextel Corp. announced a deal with Fox Interactive Media that will give the carrier’s subscribers free access to MySpace Mobile from the carrier’s portal.
Beginning early next year, Sprint Nextel will become the first carrier to allow users to link directly to the popular social-networking site as well as FOXSports.com on MSN, RottenTomatoes, Photobucket and several other Fox properties at no charge. Sprint Nextel first partnered with Fox in 2002 to deliver news and scores from FOXSports.com.
“Our partnership empowers Sprint data subscribers with easy access to their MySpace community at no additional charge,” said Amit Kapur, MySpace’s VP of business development. “We’re also in the process of redesigning the mobile site to provide an updated look and feel and enhanced functionality.”
MySpace, which dominates the white-hot social networking space, recently unveiled an ad-supported version of its site for mobile users.
