Most of my friends have both facebook and myspace accounts, and literally use them interchangeably.

Can you show some examples of the interchangable nature that you speak of? Can I customize "my" page on Facebook as I can on MySpace? Can I share links the same on both?

The demo is not the same my friend.

1.) Who cares if the steps to post a link are not the same? You can do both on either. You can also share photos, videos, & other things you like on both platforms.

2.) The demographics are the same. Facebook started out as a college thing, now they’ve opened it up to everyone. It clearly is NOT a business network, because if that were the case they would be focusing on those types of features (contact sharing, job boards, etc.) which they clearly are not. They focus on photo albums, wall posts, “notes,” etc. Clearly more of an entertainment platform. MySpace started out as that musician thing, but now it’s full of teens – adults, using it for the same shit: messaging with friends, making their profile their own, etc.

Just because you can’t customize a profile on the facebook doesn’t mean they’re targeting different audiences. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

Maybe the exams you took as a child were retarded too.

MySpace >>>>> Facebook >>>>> LinkedIn

People like Jason Calacanis are using Facebook to push his Mahalo project. I don't think he has a MySpace page for the project.

But we can disagree, no worries.

My MBA says I am not retarded :)

While there are endless applications you can add to your page and you can move the sections around, pages are generally uniform, and finding people (particularly for business or locating Alumni) is so much easier.

Also, you’ll find many more “important” people on Facebook. It’s a networking tool that connects ‘busiess’ type people to ‘the masses’ (I’ve always hated that; ‘the masses’), much the same way MySpace (as was already mentioned) was originally for bands to get their music out there.

Even if they are the same, you have to see that they target a different audience. It seems as though even if you started off with MySpace, ass you get older, you go to Facebook. Granted, I’m about to be 25, & I use both. I’ve been on the Space for about 2 years? Maybe 3. And I just got the Book a couple months ago. Whenever I log in to one, I log into the other. I like a lot of the apps that Facebook has, but I wish it was more customizable (like MySpace). Likewise, I like MySpace, but I wish some people would stop clogging up their pages with 436272726 videos and songs that all play at the same time, which I appreciate that I haven’t seen many people on Facebook do.

That being said, there are many similarites and differences to the two sites. However, millions of people continue to log in/sign up each day. So who cares which one is “better”? The only person that makes a difference to is the user; which network is better FOR THEM.
