MySpace v Facebook growth

GigaOm has a great blog post on MySpace v Facebook growth in the last 12 months. I personally am actually surprised to see that Facebook has so many uniques a month. With MySpace continuing to grow though it is going to be very tough for Facebook to catch up.

Here is a snippet from GigaOm: According to comScore, MySpace added 3.5 million unique visitors in October, a roughly 5 percent increase, bringing its total to 72 million. Facebook saw the number of visitors rise by 8 percent, putting its total at about 33 million.

My "guess" is that MySpace also does a lot more pageviews per visitor than Facebook. Actually looks like I may be wrong on that guess. Compete shows that MySpace and Facebook both have about 45 pageviews/visit.

good question, I am guessing a fair amount in the 15-21 yr old mkt?
I certainly dont use MySpace, although I think I created a profile ages ago to check out the site.
I am on Facebook but struggle to get any value.

just an update on this - i am now starting to slowly get value from facebook.
the more effort/time you put into it, and the more friends you add to it, it slowly becomes useful.
