MySpace is considering publishing a spin-off magazine, according to Advertising Age.

AdAge.com reports that the website's owner, Rupert Murdoch's News Corp, has held talks with music and fashion mag Nylon, with which it has previously published an annual MySpace Music magazine.

A MySpace executive told AdAge that MySpace is currently 'modelling' the magazine.

'Our main concern is the MySpace brand,' he said. 'We don't want to do anything that would hurt the brand.'
