Oh yes, the Marine Corps in the US has its own MySpace profile and isn’t afraid to use it in anger – or at least recruiting.
Already 12,000 teens have added it as a friend and according to Wired:
The Marine Corps MySpace profile — featuring streaming video of
barking drill sergeants, fresh recruits enduring boot camp and Marines
storming beaches — underscores the growing importance of the internet
to advertisers as a medium for reaching America’s youth.
: : NB: the Wired article also mentions the Toyota Yaris profile, for those of you looking for examples of mainstream marketing on MySpace.
