Miami - News Corp.'s MySpace online social network on Tuesday introduced MySpace en Español, the beta version of a new Spanish-language version of its site for U.S.-based Hispanics, as well as a new Spanish-language, pan-regional site for Latin American residents.

The company said its internal numbers show that more than six million members have indicated their origin as either Latino and/or Hispanic in the United States alone.

"MySpace en Español opens the community even wider, giving our Hispanic members the choice to share their experiences, connect with family members, and plan their social lives in either Spanish or English," said Travis Katz, senior vice president and general manager of MySpace International.

The company also announced plans to launch a Brazilian site this summer, and added that MySpace Mexico, currently in beta, is expected to launch in the coming months.
