U.S Air Force on MySpace

Seems like the U.S Air Force is joining MySpace:

"The Air Force profile will show users five video clips that the Recruiting Service says gives them “a behind-the-scenes look at the extraordinary things airmen accomplish every day,” according to a press release. Users will be able to view longer videos of airmen as they fly jets, call in air strikes, navigate satellites and jump out of airplanes, the service said. They also can vote on which commercial will kick off the Air Force’s new “Do Something Amazing” advertising campaign, scheduled for Sept. 18 during the FOX network’s “Prison Break” television show."

It's like using a Yahoo Group mailing list to break the ice and keep it teen-friendly. Now, teens all over the U.S know which buddy to avoid. I'm sure Privacy advocates will pick this up shortly, given "someone" isn't already data mining MySpace profiles for targeted propositions -- of course they are.
