Facebook vs. MySpace

Everyone has it....and if you don't...your one of the very few. The Myspace population is mainly for high school students and college kids. MySpace is the place you go to chat, see you friends pictures and get reminders of your buddies birthdays.

While Facebook is the more elegant and less chaotic version. Some say it lacks personality.

MySpace gives many options to its users. Options like picking a colorful backround, link a song to play when people come to look, fonts, Top 8 friend list and such. The downside of Myspace, is the limit of pictures, and the problems some children are having with older creepy men stalking them. Myspace is available to anyone who signs up.

Facebook offers multiple photo albums for you to post, it displays the friends you have, and can see them more easily. Facebook is for college students and those with company email addresses. Facebook allows you to join groups, which MySpace does not have that option.

Both are a great way to stay in touch with those who live far away. It is a great way to stay connected with friends at other colleges.

So which one is better???? Everyone will have their opinion. Both offer teenagers and college students stay connected and talk to one another. It is a great way for students to mingle and network. Which one do you prefer????

I just joined Facebook today, and I like it so far. It's a little annoying that you have to add someone as a friend and wait for their approval before you can even see their profile, but it does make you feel safer. With MySpace, your information is out there for the world to see.

Myspace has groups. Granted they aren't as polished as Facebook's. One big overriding factor though is that Facebook users are strictly limited to groups and networks where as Myspace users are free to meet anyone from anywhere.
