The above is taken from a New York Times busines article on the new frontiers being made in advertising by Fox Interactive Media with their recent pruchase of social networking site MySpace.com.

We couldn’t agree with Ross Levinsohn more. More importantly Disney and Nintendo, two of our advertisers have already asked for their own profile pages to the pleasure of our members.

Disney has permanent pages on Dogster and Catster for Lady and the Tramp. Heck you can even befriend them or join their Group. And Nintendo got the bark out about Nintendogs, one of the hottest selling games of the year, by unleashing Sasha on the Dogster community. The Nintendogs campaign went so well it earned them a bunch of awards as well as highly engaged members.
