How do sites like myspace.com get funding to actually operate? (Before it was 'sold')

Well adds are a strong revenue stream but typically when you are starting out (if you are business savvy) you could initially approach Venture Capitalists for funding and they will typically take 10-40% of the company to provide you with funds and once your idea takes off they sell out their shares and make a killing or get killed as in the DOTCOM bust!

ads, ads and ads! Thats why free sites like myspace are so ad-ridden!
