Who?

My what? Who's space? Amongst the myriad of problems and circa 1999 thinking on this one, is Myspace still really the 'preferred' social networking site...for anyone? I realize that Myspace has been scrambling for ages on how to monetize the site, and the HP deal just looks like another "Oh, they want to throw money at us? Ok...we're on board".

Priting photos? How many tweens DON'T have a photo gallery on their mobile phones? Who the heck is going to be printing anything from myspace?

RE: Who?

Actually, many people still prefer MySpace. Most users of these social networks do not care about how they are trying to monetize their sites. They just want to connect with their friends, and in MySpace's case musicians, filmmakers, artists, etc. For the record, I'm not all that excited about the photo printing thing, but I think many people will be happy to take advantage of it. I still consider MySpace to be a legitimate contender in the social media game, regardless.

I would say that Facebook

I would say that Facebook was the preferred social media.. until they went with the "New Facebook". The new design is overly complicated and just not user friendly. I find myself using MySpace more and more over Facebook, and that used to be the other way around.
