What's the main difference between MySpace and Facebook?

fnfalman · 04-12-2010, 12:00 PM

Other than the fact that they are owned by different companies, what exactly is the big difference? I don't really get it.

A few years back, everybody said, "Gotta get MySpace, gotta get MySpace."

Now, they say, "Gotta get Facebook, gotta get Facebook."

I have accounts on both and never bothered to go there. I have forums to go to in order to socialize with people that have similar interests. I have emails of people that I want to write to. So, what exactly do MySpace and Facebook do?

Just another avenue to talk to friends. Oh, and myspace is full of pedophiles.

myspace you can design the lay out of your page where FB is a little more fuctional. Myspace has now copied facebook on the chat features and the status updates. I like FB much more and have pretty much ditched my myspace page

FB is a more controlled environment which gives a "cleaner" interface. When FB first started you could only join if you had a .edu email address and you had to be part of a "network," some group of people. I think because of the way it started FB became more of a way to keep in contact with people you know or to meet people your friends know while MySpace became more of a way for individuals to and groups to advertise themselves.

Myspace = the ghetto of the internet. Also people put tons of retarded graphics, videos, and music on their page, so if you're not at home on cable, good luck even opening that shit.

Facebook was much cooler when only college kids could be on it.
