Neat!
There's a reason why I stopped using MySpace, and the when Facebook gets to this point, I'll move on again: load time/page behavior in hand-held devices.
As our world become more and more mobile, accessing social networking sites from our mobile devices is going to be more important. MySpace only has a mobile version on select devices/operators, Facebook has a mobile site that works for pretty much all.
Now take your mobile device/pocket computer/internet tablet and open up the non-mobile MySpace and Facebook.
With devices with 20mb to 128mb of RAM, Facebook works kinda to pretty good, MySpace works excruciatingly slow to browser crashing.
And that's BEFORE I've logged in!
I do have to agree with Intan and the comment above to say that aside from the nuisance of application spam, the cluttered ugly profiles are the one similarity the two have in common. I'm tired of spending an hour on each profile page looking for one's Walk!
That been said, it's A LOT easier for Joe SubAverage to control the look of their Facebook profile than their MySpace profile.
When will Facebook really be a MySpace?
Once you learn how to block applications and make your friends see what a mess their profiles are, NEVER!
