What do you think will happen to MySpace now since...
 

Facebook and Twitter have dominated?

no idea i havent loged into myspace in months......

better question, what % of twitter users today will be embarrassed in 5 years from now that they where even using twitter?

as more and more people tune out ads and companies really care about clicks and conversions what will the real value of facebook be in the coming years?

Myspace will suffer the same fate as Friendster.

Heyyyy Dave
haven't seen you posting in a while

how are you doing

the same thing that will happen with Facebook 2-3 years from now, and the same that will happen with Twitter

Yeah same here. Twitter is great for grabbing new traffic. Quicker and easier than myspace in my opinion.

Friendster, Myspace, same shit.

Myspace said it is positioning itself to be a gaming portal or hub based around gamers.

I actually think that's a smart move. Not really the gaming part, but trying to niche the site a little more. I think the "general" social networking sites will never make money being free. The audience is too varied and the advertisers will never pay enough. If they go niche, the value to the advertising suddenly goes waaay up.

It's a gamble but it's better than the wait-and-see attitude of Facebook that believes it will magically start making huge money one day before another hot site just comes along.

Tons of pornstars on Myspace.

I love myspace

myspace is waaaaay better for music, I go to myspace way more than facebook, and Twitter sucks balls :2 cents:

MySpace is filled with Porn Stars and bots.

I would turned MySpace into an adult social site and divide into niche dating.

It's interesting to me that Myspace still generates 5x the advertising revenue ( according to Forbes and TechCrunch )

I've been posting more this last few months than ever.
I'm good, How are you.

That's so funny and so true.

You miss the fact that myspace does because of a huge bloated deal with google.com that ends and will not be renewed. Then they are down something like 65% of the revenue they had.

Between the Porn Stars and Rock Music it has, it would be a great mix if they can get all the kids out of the site and make it 18 and over.

It is amazing that the once dominant leader in social networking allowed themselves to become a internet trailer park. I guess this is how the social networks are gonna work.. king for just one day til the next new thing comes along.

I blame all the shitty themes and crap the morons would add to their pages..

Yup, They had the right idea, someone else just did it better. :Oh crap

It will turn into a tube, obviously...

I think their sluggish servers and software sure hurt them alot at a critical time as well

Yeah myspace is trash the pages are terrible.

Facebook apps are so bloody annoying that its killed the simplicity and useful-ness of Facebook.

With any luck, Twitter won't overcomplicate things and will remain useful.

Here today, Gone tomorrow. :(

I started hating MySpace when they got strict on out-going links. Protecting all the kids from adult material and the idiots who let their accounts get hacked by trying to log into myspace,upyurass.com

I think it should be a crime the way they let myspace go.

Their biggest failure was in not updating their code and design

Which means the math would come down to them still making almost double what FaceBook makes.

They will all merge into one giant goliath called TwitFaceSpace.com

I blame Tom for My Spaces downward spiral.

MySpace will go to Space

My biggest gripe with he site isn't so much lack of new things but too much freedom over what users could post on their profiles. Idiots started cramming as many videos, slide shows, glittery backgrounds and macros as they could on their profiles. Most of it copy paste code from other sites, if it doesn't crash your browser it will try and infect it. It seemed like if you went anywhere away from your home page or your inbox it stopped looking like a social networking site and more like a collection of geo cities pages.

Hopefully MySpace will have a miserable death ...

I think the more important question is who will be the next king and who will own it...:winkwink:

MySpace simply COPIED friendster.com it's funny no one has mentioned that, Myspace's plan was to copy friendster. Facebook's and LinkedIn's plans was much different, and much stronger.

Myspace never had a growth / development strategy -- so ironically they helped Youtube to a huge payday, and then bought photobucket for 300 MM. They had / have no clue.

myspace is and has been awful for a long time. facebook is starting to add to much crap to it, hope they keep it simple. twitter is good for what it is, quick. evolving into real time search as well.

it still has a lot of followers

who knows?

I agree, Facebook was better a year ago and like you said. Now they let anyone sign up.

Maybe it dies....maybe not...

done and done

Zuckerman should've sold for the billion he got offered. Now they're spreading themselves way too fucking thin and FaceBook will definitely lose its novelty factor soon enough.

Depends who is behind it right at the moment....if they are smart, they must stay on top of the cutting edge in their market and products...must always tweak with the times i call it ;-)

it will turn into a tube

Greed!!! Or Pride, not sure.
