    Re: Facebook sparked 'white flight' from MySpace

    From what I've seen ... people tend to keep their Facebook more business/family/private related whereas Myspace is more of a play area with songs, images and backgrounds. I'm not sure but wasn't Facebook originally made as a business networking site for people ? And Myspace more of a social networking site ?

    Either way ... Myspace is still my fave 
    Bwahahahaha !!!

    [/quote]Well at first, you needed a college e-mail address to even be a member on Facebook. So it wasn't a business thing, but a student thing.

    I originally got a facebook so I could keep tabs of all the college kids who were posting pictures of me doing crazy shit as a security guard.  Haha.

    Incorrect. You could use an alumni email as well so it was for college graduates trying to use their education to network. The best networking tools schools have to offer are connections to professionals working in a specific industry who share an educational background with you. It's like a secret handshake.
    I never accessed any of my school emails which is why I didn't get Facebook until grad school and never used it until this year.
