Yes, we all know that MySpace is the best social networking site in the United States but is it true that Facebook overthrown MySpace popularity? Is this true???
Yeah it is true and Facebook overtakes myspace last year not this year. Today facebook is the second largest website of the world and number one in those, where people spend most of their time.
Yes it is true that Facebook.com overtakes Myspace.com. This is only possible with the Applications available over the facebook.
Facebook is really good with lots of good features and intersting applications and it not just overtakes mysace but also orkut.
Facebook overtook all other social networking sites ;-) hi5, orkut, netlog, multiply but... i think it's not only because of the applications available, but the way they marketed and managed their site. Facebook rocks!
this has been a nobrainer for a long time. Nothing to do with applications or anything. Facebook is simply the only real social network on the web.
I have to disagree - myspace with its use of html in profiles has opened up a new form of attack site. Now its attack pages that do drive by infects. People call me weekly asking to fix their computer, saying the only place they go it myspace. And now they have some kind of virus. Myspace is probably the most insecure site I have ever seen. Why its so popular I will never know. Yes, people are leaving myspace right and left to go to facebook.
Its only popular because it was the only think kids new about years ago and they still use it. Just my 2 cents
If MySpace were out of the scene, it wouldn't be growing anymore. It still is. Granted, not nearly at the rate that Facebook is, but a core group of people will still prefer MySpace to Facebook because of their pre-established position and knowledge within that community. Minus all semantics, Facebook is more interactive, though I've seen a lot more visually stunning MySpace profiles than Facebook can claim. Is MySpace insecure? Sure is. Is Facebook a socialist tool that's undermining the personalities and expression of it's users? Maybe if you ask someone whose coded falling, flashing, glittering, spinning names of their family and friends in the background of their MySpace profile. Either way you'd all be better off going to Dicks, getting a bat, baseball, glove and cap and joining your local community ball team for socialization. This computer world is big numbers, but all the big people aren't here. Jason
Hi, Yes.. even, Facebook has become a great platform for companies and business owners to be in touch with their customers through fan pages. Facebook fan page helps your business to building up your brand online.
Facebook = 350+ million users MySpace = definitely under that but over 100 mill since aug 2006. old article to see how fast they are growing: http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/01/22/facebook-now-nearly-twice-the-size-of-myspace-worldwide/
Yeah, it's really true. Facebook become more popular than Myspace because of its different application and actually most business now use it for their website and product promotions.
Based on number of users, I have read before that Facebook has already overtaken MySpace something like last year itself. As corroborated by details and press articles posted in this thread.
