facebook versus myspace!
July 12th, 2007There has been a lot of talk about Facebook unseating MySpace as the top social network. While that may (or may not) happen sometime in the future, the so-called gray lady of Social Networks is holding its own.
So, which do YOU prefer?
But here are a few more reasons for me to switch to Facebook completely:
- GUI: The graphical user interface is so much more cleaner and prettier on Facebook.
- Organization: Everything is so much more functional and organized on Facebook, that it’s easier and less of a pain to update profiles and such.
- Apps: This might actually be a detriment now that there are so many Apps available now on Facebook. But, I really like the “movies” app and a couple of others, that make interaction more fun.
- More Social Networking: On Facebook there is more interaction, options, and more ways to connect with everyone in your networks. I think it’s the most interactive social networking site on the web right now. And for that alone, Facebook has a chance to overtake Myspace.
- Spamming: There seems to be more opportunities for spammers to infiltrate at Myspace than on Facebook. Matter of fact, I don’t really remember receiving any spam over at Facebook. It’s a pretty secure place compared to Myspace.
Now if Facebook can only manage my gig schedule… then I’d become a total Facebook convert…. anyone know of an app I can add that can do that?

I definitely like facebook more than myspace. I like that you can change around the layout of your page, but not make it absolutely crazy so that it takes forever to load like myspace. It’s stupid, but I also like the tagging feature for the photos. that way, you don’t have to keep posting bulletins or commenting to announce that you have photos of people up.

i definitely agree about the problems with myspace and people getting out of control with their layouts and adding a lot of junk, basically, which takes forever to load!
oh, yes, that’s a good feature to mention, the tagging feature for photos.
