Key differences between Myspace and Facebook. Myspace is busy adding areas to the site that assuage advertisers while Facebook adds features and functionality that makes it a better service for users. Liz at GigaOM says:
Sometimes Mark Zuckerberg and his crew of big-picture thinkers try too hard to separate themselves, calling a blogging tool “notes� or adding a company blog without a feed. But other times they seem to really get it — for instance, today’s new features: news feeds that show, chronologically, your friends’ most recent activities across the site, and your own most recent activities across the site. In 30 seconds, I can find out what my family, my college friends, my current friends, and even some of my work contacts have been doing. If I think my own “mini-feed� has too much information in it, I can adjust it item-by-item to leave no trace.
