What's the main difference between MySpace and Facebook?

I can't join my college network. They send a confirmation email to the .edu address...I lost access to that bitch like a week after graduation. WTF.

Myspace is for hoes. Facebook is for classy hoes.

A few years back, everybody said, "Gotta get MySpace, gotta get MySpace."

Now, they say, "Gotta get Facebook, gotta get Facebook."

I have accounts on both and never bothered to go there. I have forums to go to in order to socialize with people that have similar interests. I have emails of people that I want to write to. So, what exactly do MySpace and Facebook do?

Facebook is better. One thing it allows people to do is to share pics with friends and family. It also allows you to tag them in it so they kinda have access to it as well.

There is a small number of the people on my friends list that would be apart of any of the forums (might be over 20) that I go to. Its just another spot to "hang out".

Same here, and I'd actually like to find people I went to college with. Pretty annoying.

Fuck off with all that already.

I block all of that shit. The only thing that shows up on my Home page are status updates and pictures.....

I'm curious but what prevents the teeny boppers from signing up on Facebook? They can always lie about their age.

My son signed up for FB when he was 12. There was no age restriction iirc.

It's quickly becoming as sucky as myspace.

thus why when everyone else went to fb i simply stopped using social networking sites
