iLike is a social music recommendation service that launched in 2006. With the success of Myspace music, by acquiring iLike; myspace will lock down it’s leading position for most popular online identity for bands.

What’s interesting about this story is that iLike is deeply integrated into Facebook as one of it’s most popular applications with 10 million users monthly. With Myspace being facebook’s main competition we will have to see how this plays out. Why didn’t facebook just buy iLike?

Marines ban twitter, facebook & other social networking sites

With concerns for security the military is banning access to Twitter, Facebook & other social media sites. It looks like at least for the next year they will be banning access to better access the situation.

This action kind of goes contrary to social media activities going on within the military. Wired.com reported “many within the Pentagon’s highest ranks find value in the Web 2.0 tools. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff has 4,000 followers on Twitter. The Department of Defense is getting ready to unveil a new home page, packed with social media tools. The Army recently ordered all U.S. bases to provide access to Facebook. Top generals now blog from the battlefield”

“Price Floyd, the Pentagon’s newly-appointed social media czar, told Noah Shachtman of Wired.com, “What we can’t do is let security concerns trump doing business. We have to do business… We need to be everywhere men and women in uniform are and the public is. If that’s MySpace and YouTube, that’s where we need to be, too.”

So we will have to see how this one plays out.
