Yes, totally interesting. Thanks for posting! I had a good chat about this today in the office; on the one hand, it's insanely daunting to imagine how you'd actually trim it down. On the other hand, myspace's social graph, especially around entertainment is arguably the only valuable thing at the company right now. As a thought experiment, I asked "What if color.com owned myspace's traffic and social graph?" My answer is that color.com would be worth much more than the $250mm TC seems to think Myspace will sell for. Of course, that's an inflammatory company to pick, but choose your own social company. What about groupon, or what if Microsoft injected myspace into the Live community somehow? All the moving parts / separate units are probably not adding much value right now, unfortunately. Since I haven't used myspace in many years I have no real domain knowledge here, though. And, I browsed it for a while today after thinking about this, and agree -- the site is huge, and complex, and as I recalled a nightmare of horrible personal design and usability. On the plus side, Bieber looked totally awesome.
