    Facebook finally beats MySpace in the US market

    Full info is available here. Does this mean that Facebook porn/gambling/pharma apps will finally outnumber myspace ad profiles?

    The Facebook growth rate numbers are AMAZING. Time to get on the (already crowded) FB ad app bandwagon?

                      So who is losing the most now in the social networking biz?

                      Facebook, Myspace, Twitter or Adult Friend Finder?

                          Only MySpace has been making a profit out of those. Facebook is losing the most but thats because they are spending huge amounts on infrastructure.

                                  Myspace is not making money.

                                      I dont like FB, MySpace seems much more intuitive; but I gotta admit I dont use either.

                                          EVERYBODY is losing money right now. MySpace has been profitable for NewsCorp in the 4 years they have owned it. Mostly due to the huge deal they signed with Google.

                                              2007 they made 10 million and that is all I could find for a profit. I might be wrong. So this level of loss pretty much wipes that out. then add in that Google is very unlikely to renew the deal and ... uuugghh

                                                      It'll be interesting to see if they can bring MySpace back.

                                                                              Facebook has exactly what the user wants, so they never look to the ads. Even Facebook execs agree that the click through rates on their ads are abysmal, Myspace execs and Google says the same thing.

                                                                              Advertising will never be enough with those sites.

                                                                              They need to figure out a way to extract money from all this traffic. Everything they have tried up until now has been met with near revolt by their user base.

                                                                              They should just charge $3/month or something like Skype does. People are so hooked on Facebook that they would pay. If someone stopped paying all their friends would assume they are too poor to afford $3, so I bet most heavy users would happily pay.

                                                                                                              Facebook has yet to post one single $1 in the black.

                                                                                                              The internet is not some magical place where massive amounts of traffic and alot of awesome things to do will excuse you from paying the bills or explaining to share holders why you aren't making money.....Facebook is no exception.

                                                                                                              and no matter how much the media shoves the Facebook story down our throats it won't be unless they have a sound way to make $$$$$$$. Guess what...they don't.

                                                                                                              Full Disclousure: I use Facebook alllll day and they will not make a single cent from unless it's through selling my user data.
