Facebook or MySpace???
 
I used to use MySpace and now I hate it, too many spammers. :disgust

Which one do you use and why do you prefer one over the other?

Libertine 09-16-2008 10:50 PM

I prefer Myspace, it's easier to spam :)

Babaganoosh 09-16-2008 10:52 PM

I'm an adult. I don't touch social networking sites.

LiveDose 09-16-2008 10:54 PM

I have both and use neither.

Heh, i consider myself an adult from time to time but I live far far away from home so it's easier to stay in touch with all my friends. :winkwink:

Cory W 09-16-2008 11:06 PM

Facebook blows Myspace away. I used to say the opposite, but recently changed my mind.

And I love you.

Shey 09-16-2008 11:35 PM

I agree... Luv ya too!!! :winkwink:

Well, I have lots of friends :)

And since when is getting attention from the opposite sex a bad thing? Hell attention from the same sex is fine too... :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Antonio 09-17-2008 12:30 AM

Ivo 09-17-2008 12:50 AM

Facebook for sure.. much better then MySpace

Fap 09-17-2008 12:51 AM

facebook.. myspace is all spam

Sarah_Jayne 09-17-2008 01:44 AM

I can't really get into either. I have tried but I get bored with them all.

blonda80 09-17-2008 01:58 AM

Facebook

DefaultMan 09-17-2008 02:23 AM

I use both equally but for different reasons

Marie 09-17-2008 02:36 AM

#3! None of the above!
Should look into it some time though...

SayWhut 09-17-2008 03:08 AM

Facebook murks it.

Myspace is too bloated.

Why do you need to spam? Just build a decent app and monetize off that ...

webcams_sean 09-17-2008 03:32 AM

I was myspace now I am facebook.

Myspace can rot :-)

StuartD 09-17-2008 04:27 AM

There's quite the interesting article in last month's Fast Company about MySpace and why they believe they're way better than Facebook.

It also gives some insights into their plans for the future and how they intend to become a "social portal" rather than a social networking site.

Did you know that MySpace was launched 1 month before Facebook was??

IamShaider 09-17-2008 04:48 AM

go go facebook :pimp

Herb Kornfield 09-17-2008 04:59 AM

facebook :thumbsup

No Annoying custom profiles that you cant usually read the text.

No shit songs that are on the custom profiles that you usually cant read the text on.

No spam from "local" women that tend to be merely pics of some of the models in adult. If they do in fact live in my area ( plymouth meeting PA ) then this is news to me this area must be a hotbed of babes / porn capital of the universe. Not bad for a town only a few miles across. :)

Myspace seems to be copying Facebook, what with the developer/application area, ajax photo galleries etc.

Did you also know that Myspazz is owned by Fox News. Fuck supporting that shit.


I only use Myspace for their bandwidth in playing music from decent underground artists etc.


Myspace ads are a disgrace and I doubt they are as effective as the inline ones in Facebook.

If ever you can find the copy of Fast Company, you should check it out. It actually talks quite a bit about Murdoch's role and opinion of MySpace, and about their ad campaigns.

It's actually quite fascinating to read.

Manowar 09-17-2008 05:34 AM

most people have switched to facebook now

stev0 09-17-2008 05:41 AM

Facebook is for real people, that have real friends, and use it to organize real events and keep in touch... Myspace is for Mike22fromAtlanta to digitally hit on FriendlyChik24 from his parents basement.

Then again I don't really know, never had a Myspace account... but that's the impression I've got.

The Heron 09-17-2008 05:56 AM

Myspace takes forever for me to load, is slow, and full of too much shit.
Facebook is fast, fairly uniform (though getting worse), easier to find who you're looking for.

So facebook wins.

A year or two ago I probably would have totally agreed with you, then my girlfriend at the time signed me up and I gave it a try. Of course it really depends where you live, and what age group you're in (because facebook started recently as a college/university only networking site). It's even catching on with older generations though, now it seems like more people have facebook than cell phones. People that say "why would I need it? I have a phone" are the same people that were saying "why would I need a cell phone?, people can leave messages on my answering machine" not too long ago.

I organize quite a few events, and it works great for me. It's way easier to make a facebook event and send it out to a few hundred people than it is for me to call them all with details via phone. Also keeps you in touch with friends that have moved away, or that you haven't talked to in a long time.

At the same time, I would worry about the privacy issues. I keep my profile on the highest privacy settings (I don't think people are even able to look me up). But some people put way too much information on there and allow people that aren't on their friends list to view their profiles. How easy would it be to steal someones identity if you found their wallet and had access to all of their personal information, friends, birthday, etc... online? Pretty much any security question out there is available on facebook. You can't blame peoples stupidity on Facebook though. If you wouldn't write your phone number and personal information on the wall at the bar, then you shouldn't add strangers or let them view your facebook or Myspace profiles, IMO.

Vicious_B 09-17-2008 06:00 AM

I have a myspace and use it to keep in touch with alot of people across the country even though I am not on it very often.

MySpace is full of crappy spam its frustraiting, facebook is for the win!

Also Libertine, very nice avatar you have there!

cherrylula 09-17-2008 06:05 AM

Myspace is like the ghetto of social networking sites.

NikKay 09-17-2008 06:58 AM

I also use both, with high privacy settings. MySpace has more of my friends/family on it, although that's beginning to change. I'm not a huge fan of the Facebook redesign, but their game aps and site speed kill MySpace. Social networks make it so much easier to keep track of my friends and family, keep updated on the lives of people I don't see very often, and organize travel as well as local events with those people.

Also, I'm really nosy and I like to see who's dating who and what their mood is today. :)

CaptainHowdy 09-17-2008 08:47 AM

I gotta say none ...

beta-tester 09-17-2008 08:48 AM

facebook for biz and serious business relationships, myspace for fun!

The Duck 09-17-2008 08:57 AM

They both suck.

jnice 09-17-2008 09:05 AM

Klen 09-17-2008 09:34 AM

Facebook but myspace was first afterall.

JamesK 09-17-2008 09:45 AM

I hate social networking sites. I hate people.

webgurl 09-17-2008 09:51 AM

facebook , BUT the newface book layout sucks ass .....

_Richard_ 09-17-2008 09:53 AM

facebook for the time being.. but the apps are annoying. Especially when one app sells your information and profile to a different app

borbetbs 09-17-2008 10:34 AM

Facebook :thumbsup

Bobbysangel 09-17-2008 10:40 AM

I have both but I prefer facebook

Doctor Feelgood 09-17-2008 11:06 AM

i just got a webmaster job offer on myspace

sweetredhead 09-17-2008 11:13 AM

Facebook for sure, myspace is annoying

Shey 09-18-2008 12:22 AM

Facebook is definitely the better choice now a days. I also dig their security settings. I have profiles to group people and what they can and can't see. I know myspace has security features too but they are a pain in the ass.

I also like the fact that a band or something like that doesn't have to come through as a friend request instead you can become a fan and it goes in a different place. All around the functionality is better. And yes, the new design is different and still getting used to it but it's grown on me. Starting to like it better actually. :thumbsup
