		<description>Privacy is in the hands of the Facebook user ultimately. There are controls, and, ultimately, it is up the the consumer (user) to ensure that information is controlled. I prefer Facebook over MySpace, even though I have accounts on both. I simply got tired of being spammed from Nigeria on MySpace by people pretending to be 24 year old female Brain Surgeons from the US, but they didn't have a clue on how to put a sentence together. That does not happen on FB. In my opinion, I have more control over my info on FB.</description>

		<description>I've used both services and much rather use facebook.

Here's why

I find facebook is more like an address book then a social chat site (myspace.com). I log into facebook when I need to get in contact with specific people. Because users have to sign up with there real information on facebook it makes finding people easier. Facebooks interface is also a lot cleaner, I don't have to search through a million different layouts of everyone of my friends pages to find the information i'm looking for.

I think facebook is good for organizing, planning and catching up with old friends but that's about it. If your a social cat and love spending tons of hours chatting online I think myspace is the better site.</description>

		<description>Facebook is the biggest bag of crap I have ever seen, I joined myspace a while back, yes you do get spammed or should i say YOU USED TO GET SPAMMED. Since myspace have added captcha and upped their security levels it hasn't happened to me. Facebook may not be getting spammed at the moment, but there's no guarantee that it wont in time!

Facebook was originally designed for uni students in the USA, it should've been left with them. I joined Facebook to see what the big thing was all about after friends told me I should switch over to Facebook.

You have to put your real name to join, so I put a fake one in. The thing with Facebook is if you get a friends request you then get 1,000,000 questions on how you know that person, let alone you are bombarded with hundreds of add ons and super pokes, and people knowing your business.

I DON'T WANT PEOPLE KNOWING MY BUSINESS! The profile page is boring, it looks like a cv (english term for resume)

Myspace is where i will be staying, after all most of Facebooks users are originally from Myspace, and it won't take them long to realise how wrong they were to change over.
Facebook is a big fad at the moment, but like all fads - it will die.</description>

		<description>Facebook will never RIP.  Everyone I know is on it and uses is regularly and since its ran well it doesnt get hacked and spammed.  Facebook is here to stay.  People don't up and leave their profiles and friends for something else.  Facebook is like the Coca-Cola of Social Networking.  Its one of the first to really take off and will always be top notch.</description>

		<description>Andrew,

Remember a social website called Myspace which used confusing user interface to boost page views? Like it or not, Pageviews is still a "trusted" metrics in the world of brandketing..... And the more confused is the site, the more time you spend on it. It is a pity though that we don't have figures as to how long the sessions are. That would have been interesting! Can Compete do anything here?</description>
