Ready to bring in a new year and a new look, MySpace is boasting the biggest upgrade in its 5-year history. Hoping to appeal to more than the teen crowd, MySpace executives are looking to make the social network more “suitable” for families, employees and other target audiences. The company is even looking to reach 50 and 60-year-old crowds.

USA Today reports, “The ongoing changes can’t help but expand MySpace’s appeal to an older crowd and, by extension, more advertisers in the fiercely competitive multibillion-dollar online-ad market. A cleaner interface and functions underscore the maturing of the site to further appeal to an older demographic.”

Look for increased promotion around the new changes early next year. Read more on MySpace changes here.
