Comments on: Social Addicts: How do Hardcore Facebook, MySpace and Twitter users differ? http://blog.compete.com/2008/03/19/social-addicts-facebook-vs-myspace-twitter/ web insights powered by over 2 million U.S. online consumers Thu, 15 May 2008 22:14:54 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: gaeyia http://blog.compete.com/2008/03/19/social-addicts-facebook-vs-myspace-twitter/#comment-538266 gaeyia Tue, 13 May 2008 22:55:25 +0000 http://blog.compete.com/2008/03/19/social-addicts-facebook-vs-myspace-twitter/#comment-538266 Hi Max! I just (indirectly) referred to this post and after coming back for more, I realized you wrote it. How's it going? Lots of good info here. Perhaps you have some sort of magic tool that helps define Twitter demographics? Also, something that speaks to the place where the echo chamber meets/influences mass market? I guess this just proves what a small world we are in ;) Hi Max!

They are all asshat losers looking for a way to feel relevant and self important. They don’t differ.

Just checking something - in the first diagram a number of "864" means a user is 864% (i.e. 8.64 times) more likely to visit a site; in the second a number 41,615 means a user is 4,161 times (i.e. 416,150%) more likely to visit a site. Can you confirm that this is this correct, because they're not consistent scales and it seems to me like that they should be. Hi - great post & really illuminating.

If Facebook allowed "skins" or "layouts", I'm sure the same would go for them. Granted the Facebook audience is a bit more about engaging, you couldn't quite base vanity on that due to the limitations of Facebook profiles.
