although m a fan of MS but i will prefer chrome since its DOM is very resembling to IE and and in accordance to W3C but Firefox is just a mess for making trouble specially to the developers and designers..

There is a purpose for Facebook and there is a purpose for MySpace. I agree that Mashable is very biased towards Facebook and does not give enough coverage to MySpace. Both are social media giants. MySpace still has MILLIONS of users. They may have lost some to Facebook, but that doesn't mean they are disappearing by any means. The only thing that is exciting about the Facebook vs. MySpace fad, is that MySpace is now finally getting on the ball and increasing their functionality to keep up with the current social media trends. What I would want to see with MySpace is the ability to import media from other popular sites such as Twitter, Flickr, YouTube, Blogger, Delicious, Last.fm, iLike, RSS feeds etc. directly into your page. Similar to the functionality of Virb.com. It would be a great benefit to bands, and if music sharing is the market they are going to aim for they will have to add that kind of functionality to keep up.
I definitely agree with Jason. Facebook is crap, and I can't wait till the day when the "flavor of the week" social network dies down.

MySpace and Facebook are the exact opposites... they shouldn't even be compared to each other. Make a comback? It's the second largest social networking website in the world. Come back? WTF!? It never left. Mashable... you are so biased against MySpace. It's so annoying.
FB traffic will be down within 3 months once people tire of the high school-like popularity contest on there and when it finally sinks in that they realize they screwed the masses with the new "Fan" Pages. The only people that "Update" are those we bore with quickly.... those that need constant attention and reassurance... very little creativity on FB... unlike MySpace and Twitter.
Also, Celebs are on MySpace... find FB boring because it is a crappy, overrated marketing tool that produces almost no results... and now that Celebs get on Twitter... they mention MySpace all the time...
Hmm... the artists and the free thinkers are on MySpace... and the those that want to relive high school days... or extend college life into their 30's are on FB... two totally different sites with completely different purposes... stop comparing them... and get someone on staff who actually uses MySpace to write about MySpace!
