Facebook or MySpace?

How many people have wondered which social networking website they should use?  Of all the choices, MySpace, Facebook, Bebo, and so many others.  Yet, with all of the competition, the majority are at either MySpace or Facebook.  Well, which one should be your main account?  Some people (like myself) create multiple accounts on nearly every network just for the sake of staying connected to your friends.  So, why are these two networks so popular?

MySpace

Facebook
Fully Customizable Layout Can Only Customize the placement of the applications
Discernable and Unorganized UI across multiple profiles. Standard, Clean, easy to navigate user interface
(Beta) Applications A large library of applications that can interact with the user’s profile or computer
Fully Public Profiles Profile’s blocked off of visibility by network or friends added
Meta Networking Support Full-Fledged Networking embedded
MySpace TV Facebook’s small video app
Large Ads Everywhere Small, generally un-obtrusive ads.

All in all (in my opinion anyway) Facebook is a lot more organized and a lot easier to use (once you get the hang of it).  Maybe this is why it had a growth of 102% when MySpace only grew 2?

    Hmm.. Yes. I've used both, and Facebook is much, much more organised, however it took a while for me to get used to it.

    Thank you Navarr, finally this information in one place by someone who actually uses the services.


    It's obvious which one I'll be signing up for. =D
