MySpace or Facebook?
« on: April 17, 2008, 05:48:49 PM »
Which do you think is better, Myspace or Facebook?

Here's my pros and cons:

Pros:

Facebook:
More filters
Less Spam
People can only view your profile if added as a friend (not 100% sure though  :unsure: )
Some blocking software don't block Facebook

MySpace :
Ability to change your layout
You can listen and purchase full length songs
U can contact artists
generally more people use it:


Cons:
Facebook:
Most artists don't use facebook so it's harder to contact
You usually have to put your full name
You can't change the plain layout
Some applications contain viruses
You need to join a network/group

MySpace:
People could view your profile, friend or no friend
More security threats
Generally slower than other sites
Usually blocked

I honestly think Myspace is better. I just like to know your opinions on whether which one is better, MySpace or Facebook. I have a profile on both sites.
 
Any input? My above statements are just from my point of view.

None of the above. Neither because I think they are both absolutely retarded.

Facebook for sure.  Correction.. you can view people's profile if you are part of their network (unless the person puts a privacy thing on :yes: )

 The applications are annoying.  I just simply..don't add them.

Facebook is old school, yo.  But I still log in and use it :P

Facebook. MySpace has more ads, and a lot of peoples profiles are hard to see with all of those backgrounds.

without a doubt, facebook.

mainly because a lot of my friends use it, and nobody here uses myspace. its kinda weird, and probably just a heights thing. haha. but i love the less ads on facebook, and some of the applications are actually fun/kool.

I like the fact you have "Networks" on facebook.  That's also nice for friends who don't go to your school..or whatever.

But, The Applications (with the exception of a few) are annoying as 4311

nope. facebook categorizes their networks by your school. say one of my friends is from a school in SAISD, and I go to a school in AHISD, we both have facebook...he can't view my profile because i'm in the AHISD Network, and same vice-versa. unless he added me on facebook of course.

if that makes sense. hahaha
