Readers and myspace users

Social networking sites -- myspace, facebook, livejournal -- intrigue us as a place for marketing books. Except....has anyone taken a deep look as to how prolific users of these sites find the books they read? Do they read more or less than the average population?

We ask this because we're still sorting out the worth of starting a myspace page for our authors. Is a myspace page just a formality-- mark your territory -- but not a necessity in marketing your book online?

We still maintain the greatest attractant is a really well written, often updated, and sharp looking web site or blog for a book.
