MySpace sucks. It's full of ghetto skanks and guys who want a fast fuck.
Myspace was not killed for any other reason than people did not like it any longer. A lot of Facebooks ideas were directly lifted from myspace, and even some features haven't been matched today (profile songs, amount of customization). People didn't like myspace, and made the switch to facebook.
It's really sad that a website based solely upon their users, was betrayed them for a website that was slightly more streamlined.
Hey now, I remember when I had a MySpace.
For, you know, like, twelve minutes.

Actually it was hyped a lot in the US before it was released worldwide to everybody in 2006, where as before it was just US and colleges around the world.
Facebook has much better programming, compared to myspace. Where as you could customize your own site, it also left myspace in an uneasy spot on improving their own code which in turn could delete user content. Facebook can pretty quickly change both layout and codes, without people noticing to many hickups.
Beside, you didn't need a real name for a myspace which you do for a facebook account. It makes it much easier to search for people you are looking for, compared to trying to find a person by pictures alone.
Facebook will stay. Fads come and go, but i've yet to see 100 million people leaving facebook all at once. It has over 600 million people and more are still coming in. And if it reaches 1 billion people, it will be one of the biggest events in internet history. Then again, also unpresidented powers over that many files of people info.

Yup, MySpace is a buggy piece of garbage.
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;28841240]I can guarantee you out of the 100 or so facebook friends anyone has, you only talk to about 3 or 4 of them a day. Facebook is pathetic and stupid, so is myspace. Antisocial networking sites are disgusting things.[/QUOTE]
I talk with 10 to 20 people daily on facebook. It also lets me get in touch with old friends that I haven't seen in a while. It's actually pretty nice.
You sound like someone with no friends.

Facebook was a lot more than "slightly more streamlined."
Myspace was always poorly coded--I remember being greeted with error messages about 25% of the time I clicked on something. It was slow and ungainly and the ultra-permissive profiles meant it wasn't uncommon to come across a page with unreadable text over a tiling animated Blingee GIF, while the song embedded in the profile played at the same time as another song embedded in one of the profile comments. It was social networking hell and it deserved what it got.
