MySpace announced the official launch of MySpace India, a new dedicated community designed for Indian users.
MySpace India will focus on delivering the best possible experience of content and culture through a range of industry partnerships and product innovations including an alliance with Star TV, India’s largest television network, to create an original network television program “Campus Star†featured on Channel V (http://www.myspace.com/channelv). The new show, currently airing on television in India, is a nationwide college talent competition featuring celebrity judges and the voting MySpace audience.
On April 21, the MySpace Developer Platform team will be on-site in Bangalore to welcome local developers onto the open MySpace platform. As one of the most innovative technical hubs worldwide, MySpace is committed to working with local developers across India and empowering them with the necessary tools to build applications for the site’s more than 250 million registers users worldwide. To date, MySpace has hosted local “devJAM†developer workshops in Beijing, Tokyo, Seoul, Sydney, London, Berlin, Seattle, Stockholm, and San Francisco.

Dennis,
You can add a bit to the article, making mention that News Corp. supposedly has considerable stake in Star TV, making it’s partnership even more stronger.
