Sorry, I got distracted. I should have answered why I prefer Facebook to Myspace.
Facebook is much, much more convenient for finding people. You can easily search through people’s friends for a specific name, after meeting someone through a friend, and the networks function allows for convenient sorting of people. Also, since people actually use their real names on Facebook, it is also more convenient! (Myspace “names” are littered with song lyrics and bizarre nicknames…)
I also have always been repulsed by the layout of Myspace. It still boggles my mind why such a profitable website refuses to employ a web designer who understands the meaning of user friendly. Everything is cluttered, ugly, and inconvenient on Myspace.
Facebook has some smart people working for it, and even if its changes seem annoying at the time, they’re really thinking ahead as to what will be most beneficial for their users in the long run. I think Facebook is incredibly useful and well designed, and I am a big proponent of the website. Myspace…not so much. I’ll still always have a profile there, as I often need to look at certain people who don’t have Facebook, but I just think Myspace is kinda trashy.
