Facebook Claim More Friends Than MySpace on Global Playground
Social networking Netizens are flocking to Facebook in record numbers, helping the site claim more unique visitors
in May than its closet competitor, MySpace. Facebook also enjoyed a
slight edge in April at 116.4 million visitors compared to MySpace's
115.7, but a 6 percent increase in unique hits in May pushed the
disparity even further to a 123.9 million versus 114.6 million
advantage. This comes less than a year after Microsoft bought a 1.6 percent
stake in Facebook, valuing the company at a staggering $15 billion. But
for all that it's gained globally, Facebook still trails MySpace in the
US where the majority of advertising dollars are to be won.
