How does one send such a message to as large an audience as possible on MySpace?
Kenneth,
The mechanism used here was a MySpace "message," which is like an internal e-mail. Other ways to send such a message are with MySpace "bulletins" or "comments." You need to be "friends" with someone on MySpace to send a message.
All these techniques are covered here in my book.
