I think Walmart's is the strongest as well in terms of what they did on MySpace, clearly not thrown together. Not to mention they know where their demo lives, on MySpace.

I totally agree. I like Target's, it is pretty to look at, but it really falls short in so many ways, especially compared to Walmart.
There was also an interesting commend on a kiss my black ads post:
about the choice on typeface and negative stereotypes.

The execution on myspace looks good but the demo of the folks on the video don't speak well to the AA audience that is using myspace the most. Also at only 6400ish friend opt ins compared to the millions of black profiles on myspace -- its far far far far from an tactical success (more of an art/design success in my opinion).
MySpace custom page executions are for the most part 'wowser' ideas to wow clients that really don't create a lot in the way of measurable brand success -- unfortunately all of us agencies have to do that stuff to keep clients...everything from facebook apps to myspace executions and the like have had very marginal success for short lived campaigns (the 100k+ im sure they spent in agency and design time just for the myspace page couldve been executed a lot better elsewhere imho). At least they're advertising
