Facebook is more popular than myspace, more people use it, so friends will go on it to communicate with friends. If nobody uses myspace around you, then there's no point in using it.

Yeah, I have to agree. I would think Facebook would never get as popular as myspace, much less More Popular? I think that farmville is dumb cuz you can grow nachos. At least on myspace, mafia wars is somewhat-real. same for he vampires game by zynga, I have over a trillion blood on there.

Facebook is more straightforward as far as networking goes. If you want a site that will show what you're all about through other people's art, then sure, myspace is better. It's also better for bands, because you can't upload songs on facebook, and my space has band pages. If you want networking, or if you want to share photos, and videos, I think facebook works a lot better. Facebook pages take less time to load. The chat feature is also nice. I agree that the games are lame, but that's not what facebook is meant for.

Really..

Facebook has over 400 Million Users..

Facebook is way more popular then Myspace.. and way better as well.

I even deactivated my myspace because I didn't even use it after I got facebook..

but why there is nothing on facebook that makes it even worth while over myspace.

tell me how facebook is better then myspace. you can customize your myspace profile, you can make your layout that you look at on myspace look interesting so youre never board. you have a ton of games and stuff. honestly it jsut doesnt make scence when there is more stuff to do on myspace then there is facebook that facebook would be better

Myspace is just way too overstuffd with things now..

Too many things just.. I hate it.

Facebook is way cleaner.. as in how it looks.

Facebook is a networking website, not really the same as myspace you could say?

What are we five years old? Or pregnant teenagers? Or creepy old men?

No?

Then obviously Facebook is better. Myspace is a dirty networking cesspool that's dissolved into nothing but one giant add.

The home page is an add...

Facebook is much smoother and designed for better communication with your friends which is the purpose of networking. Myspace is complex and full of flashy profiles that detract from the main purpose.

whats wrong with advertising movies?

you can turn off the flashy profile thing you know that.

myspace has video also which facebook doesnt have as i can see.

myspace has changed over the past 5 years if you dont know

Yes, but the problem is that most people don't. facebook doesn't even have the customization which makes it run smoother.

it does.

Well Facebook doesn't do it which adds a purer feel to the site and takes away the commercialism.

Yes it's called getting a Facebook :P

If they have it there's a 99% chance that Facebook had it first but I've no idea what your talking about here.

Either way you'll come around to my point of view soon enough it takes awhile but soon you'll like Facebook better.

they are both stupid for the reasons most people use them (farmvill, asking your friends stupid questions, and letting everyone know that you just go home and are tired)

i just use them to spy on people for fun and to talk to my friends
