Up With Facebook!

It's official - Facebook is more important in my life than MySpace!

Two of my friend requests on Facebook got honored today, giving me 71 Facebook friends to 69 MySpace friends. True, some of my Facebook friends and some of my MySpace friends are the same people, so there's some overlap, but that's not the issue. The point here is that I've been on MySpace for two-and-half years and I've been on Facebook for seven months, and until yesterday it only took me seven months to get as many friends on Facebook as I'd accumulated on MySpace in a quarter of a decade. As of today, Facebook stands even taller on my PC.

Not only am I spending a lot more time on Facebook, I'm spending a lot less time on MySpace. Right now I only go on it to change my MySpace Music Video Of the Week, and it's then that I check for updates. There's no need to check for updates in between; there are so damn few of them. Many of my MySpace "friends" are musical acts I don't know personally anyway.

I'll still keep my MySpace page, because it serves as my public Web site - I keep my Facebook page private - and I have friends on it that aren't on MySpace that I wish to keep in touch with. (Go to my MySpace page - the link is to the right on this blog - and you'll see only my top twelve friends, the ones I actually know and have met in real life.) But when it comes to connecting with people I consider an important part of my life . . . Facebook rocks my world, baby!
