I do. And yea, I like it much better than MySpace.

1) You can do so much more with it now that they have all those applications you can apply to your page and share with other users.

2) Facebook pages are set code.. meaning you can't do whatever you want with whatever type of code on your page. To me, it makes things appear a lot more organized and nice. You don't have a ton of pictures or stupid little scripts to load or extremely long pages which you have to scroll all the way down.

3) It's easier to find people

I've heard of it but I don't have it.

I have been on the face book website and to me its kinda weird.
Like on facebook there is this thing that you can get a bite by a vampire......

But I don't have MySpace either but I have been on it.

I've never got into facebook... I'm used to myspace so it all looks kinda weird to me. Might get round to making one though...

no, all you have to have is a e-mail address of course. when you sign up you have to select a certain thing like if you dont have a college e-mail address then just click none or other i cant remember which one it is.

Yea I know some people who don't like facebook and choose myspace instead.. and i'm like "what?". It probably has mostly to do with the fact that MySpace does have so many more users, because it was really the first big social networking site.

yeah myspace is okay, i just get tired of the bulletins, and then tom added this crap that suppose to be "short-cuts", and there's holes in the system so ppl can log into your account and sent spam like i went to macy's and got this awesome gift card..crap like that. facebook is better. lol.

I've been on facebook for little over a month now.. actually i've been through netwrkin sites... its like this i was on hi5, then i moved on to orkut and now m on facebook. facebook is really good in the sense tht theres so much more tht u can do... like u can cast spells on ur frnds, bite them and turn them into vampires, keep a pet, foodfight, get ur stripper name Razz, send drinks, etc etc the list goes on... with facebook the possibilities are endless... me thinks m gonna get bored of facebook after a very long time...
