I think Facebook and Myspace are both worthless.. which is why it amazes me that so many people want to copy them exactly (i.e. mybookface.com???)??
I think they both cater to the "drama" generation (am I part of that?) that LOVE to constantly stir things up. Myspace has caused so many bad things over the years, for a while they were on the news daily. Now fast forward to Facebook, one of the most BORING looking sites I have ever seen. I can't logon without seeing a page full of Farmville see more and Yoville updates from people who are my "friends", but in reality my closest friends wouldn't touch Facebook with a 10-foot pole, nevermind play "yoville". I have one friend whos MOM is on Facebook 24/7 playing Yoville?? She is also one of the people you mention who posts EVERYTHING she does.. "just woke up".. "going to the store!".. "home, time for Yoville!".. WHO CARES!?
I think both those sites cater to people with very simple minds who are easily amused (no offense to the 10 billion people who fall into that category!).
