    Facebook will crush Myspace long term. Myspace wasn't the most technologically forward thinking site several years ago, and now that News Corp owns it, it just languishes.

    The Facebook provides a much nicer user experience with much more to see and do, plus it is a lot more secure and free of spammers everywhere.

    What's shocking to me is how many people have stayed with Myspace this long. It's a terrible site, filled with people trying to sell you something (or prey on you). Plus the security is incredibly lax.

    Facebook has continued to add more and more features all the time, while Myspace is the same experience it was years ago. It wasn't anything special then and now it looks and feels just plain dated.

    It is, yet again, another example of how content is king. Myspace has been coasting for a long time because it is so large and now other companies are growing quickly because they put out considerably better products.
