To me, MySpace has been non-existent for several years now; well atleast ever since I joined Facebook. But looks like the war between the titans of social networking goes far beyond that. Facebook for one, didn’t have a very good hold over the US, whereas Myspace did, but all that has been rapidly changing. MySpace has 70 million monthly U.S. uniques (Comscore, March 2009), less than they did a year ago. Meanwhile, Facebook has surged to 61 million U.S. users, and of course continiously increasing.
Application developers for MySpace confirm this fact, and say they are losing page views and subscribers by the week, and with Google stopping it’s welfare money to Myspace a year from now, I don’t see a lot of good times to come for the social networking site, unless it chooses it hit us out of the blue with stuff that is absolutely adorable and unimaginable.
