Marketwired
Offerpal Media, the leading monetization platform for application
developers, game developers and social publishers, and MySpace, the
world's premiere social network, will co-host a MySpace developers'
workshop, or "DevJam." The event will take place on Thursday,
February 5th from 1:00 to 7:00 p.m. at MySpace's San Francisco
offices, located at 625 2nd Street. The DevJam will feature several
of social networking's most successful application developers, who
will share firsthand experiences building, marketing and monetizing
applications on the MySpace platform. Developers are asked to
register for the free event at
http://myspacedevjam.eventbrite.com/.
The workshop will focus on monetization through virtual
currency, which has quickly emerged as a proven method to deliver
value throughout the social networking ecosystem -- for publishers
and advertisers as well as consumers -- and now serves as the
monetization engine for the hottest applications on social networks
and standalone Web sites. As part of this special event, selected
developers will receive in-depth reviews of their MySpace
applications from a team of experts. Participants will also hear
directly from lead MySpace developers about the latest updates to
the MySpace platform.
The annual virtual goods market is estimated at $2 billion and
growing daily. Those who understand the dynamics of this economy
have a unique opportunity to earn a significant piece of this pie.
Today, more than 2,000 social web publishers rely on Offerpal Media
as a way to monetize their traffic, and most are earning
significant revenues through its virtual currency-based embedded
offers model.
Event participants include:
-- Anu Shukla, CEO, Offerpal Media
-- John Hwang, Director of Products, RockYou
-- Jason Holloway, CEO, Apps-O-Rama
-- Nick Talarico, Director of Operations, Sibblingz
-- Dan Yue, CEO, YouPlus
-- Max Newbould, product lead for the MySpace Developer Platform's

"Offerpal Media empowers our publisher partners to be creative
and successful with their MySpace applications," said Anu Shukla,
CEO of Offerpal Media. "By bringing together the top minds in the
industry, we offer participants a unique opportunity to learn how
they too can earn real revenues from social networking
applications."
Interested parties who would like to participate in the
application review are encouraged to send an email with details on
