My old MySpace page still looks better than any facebook page, even with Timeline. It’s not for social networking though… Twitter and Facebook have that niche. Who is it for then? Anyone who wants to make a great impression with a free, custom-designed page. It’s marketing done right. A great way to learn webpage design too.

Hey, you guys are being silly. I don’t know if any of you who have claimed that myspace is a platform for musicians actually are musicians in the first place. I’m sorry to report, but among the community of musicians that i am in contact with, not a single one of them uses myspace as a platform for their music. sometime 1-2 years ago this died. facebook’s musician page is stellar for musicians, twitter is a great tool for musicians, soundcloud is a great tool for musicians, and bandcamp is a great tool for musicians. musicians no longer have to pick a website to use as their base. so… what i’m trying to say is that I would love an actual answer regarding myspace and what it is that is keeping it alive.

if you look at the statistics, you will notice that ‘no one’ is on google+ or myspace. so… your whole ‘older argument’ makes it seem as if you read half of the article then refused to let any more information enter your brain…

this was a viable argument maybe 1-2 years ago. today, it’s not even a viable music platform. we now have soundcloud, bandcamp, and facebook musician profiles to fulfill any needs that myspace might have. the major plus of myspace’s music section was that, for whatever reason, people continued to log in to their profile, and they also continued to check out bands through the myspace platform. but without that user base, myspace is utterly useless. i’m actually pretty confused as to how it’s around. anyone care to let me know what the demographics on myspace are like these days?

The comScore graphic should really be clearer about the detail. In reading the article on the comScore site I understand the information is from November 2011 and the time usage is one month.

Businesses need to look at which services provide engagement and return for their audience instead of looking at total traffic volume. Individuals will clearly enjoying the service that has a crowd of people with similar interests. More doesn’t equal a more qualitative experience.

I had no idea that MySpace is still popular, even more so than Google +. I may have to go and take a peak at MySpace and see more.

Wow! Avg. mins per user is a staggering # for Facebook and Tumblr. Om – Did you analyze any specific day of the week when people spend more time across all of these social sites? It will be interesting to compare these numbers in Jun, 2012 and see where the wave moving…
