Via a Search Engine Watch Forum thread, Matt Cutts has a MySpace account. Well, maybe it is him or someone posing as him, who created http://myspace.com/mattcutts.
On this MattSpace, you can see some of his latest SEO videos, his profile, a temporary MySpace blog and some other links. Currently, it shows Matt as being online. Being that it is 4 in the morning in California, there is a small chance that he is actually the creator of this space. Well, maybe not, because I know Matt does work crazy late hours some times.
I am sure Matt will confirm or deny this space.
But would it surprise you if Matt or others at Google created a MySpace account? MySpace does have the ability to drive traffic, on some level, to a site. Which does affect site popularity and possibly site rankings. So maybe he is testing the waters? Or maybe Matt is really 99 years old.

Matt's looking good for a 99 year old.

I'm going to classify this blog post as MySpace friendbaiting. I wonder how many friend requests Matt is getting as a result from this post?

It's not me. I'm not a Virgo.
