I joined about 9 months ago. I have used it most days since I have joined, its great for meeting new people as well as old friends. I like it a lot better than myspace because it's not full of people trying to kill themselves. Also its not an ugly site. What about you other facebook fans. :)

I have both a myspace and a facebook account and I prefer facebook by a long shot....Myspace has far too many spammers IMO plus with Facebook I've run into alot of ppl I've not heard from or seen in yrs which is nice...

I think facebook is wayyyyy safer also. There are too many freaks on Myspace

Yes, I agree with you, myspace is full of spammers. In facebook I haven't seen much spamming. And whenever spamming has occurred it is dealt with quickly.

Facebook is my favorite website ever. I spend more time on there than any other site and I love it! I agree, it's much better than Myspace not only because of the increase in spammers but because the HTML that it allows you to do can cause your computer to freeze and is just disturbing. People pick out some God-awful backgrounds and images to put on their pages too. Facebook is just a lot more well organized and it's easier to communicate with friends and has a lot better features. Among my favorite Facebook features is the Marketplace thing. I've sold a lot of things on their and people get to buy things they need for cheap. Buying college textbooks on there is a big one.

Yeah, the colour people pick for there profiles on my space are so bad, I don't think I have seen any profile that looks nice. They all take forever to load too.

Yeah the Myspace pages do take FOREVER to load. That's part of the reason why I don't use it anymore

I like it because I can now keep in touch with old high school friends that I'd have no other way of getting in touch with. I also like the fact that I don't get about a trillion band invites (I'm in a band...and we have a myspace...but we don't SPAM the site!!!) I like the neat-o little applications, and the way you can move stuff around and tailor it to your liking. It's a simple format, and the look of it is very clean. I really like it a lot more than myspace, but still have to have a myspace for those friends I just can't convert into facebook-aholics!!! LOL

I have been on facbook for about 3 years and I love it. I practically live on facbook.I agree with you that it is much better than myspace. On facebook I get a chance to talk to people that may not have my number or that I don't really talk to on a regular basis. As for myspace, thee are to many stalker types on there. I may love my facbook but recently they have been becomming more and more like myspace (which they need to stop doing). But for the most part I love facbook and spend a lot more time on there than I do on myspace.

Less than a week. I wasn't going to get one but I had like three friends with in a few days ask me to get one, so now I have one. Check it about once a day. I prefer myspace but that maybe the fact I've been using one for over a year and am just more used to it. I don't see whats so much better can some one explain.

Not that long, probably like 4-5 months but it was really addicting at first and then it went down but I still tend to check it regularly

Yeah I have to admit I don't go on it as much as I did when I first started, but that's only because I don't find it all new and exciting any more.

I haven't been on Facebook very long, nor have I done very much on it. I joined because a good friend of mine invited me. I tend to spend most of my time here on MyLot because I get paid for my content on here. I like spending time on sites that pay me.

I joined Facebook on the day of Obama's inauguration, and have been in and out since. It kind of reminds me of Twitter to a degree, but I am just learning more about the site. Seems pretty cool.

I just joined facebook a couple days ago and I love it. At first I thought it was kind of boring but now I've found all kinds of things on there to do. I have found so many people that I went to elementary school with. I was like OMG! Yea I don't really go to myspace anymore. I think it's kind of played out. So many people on there, it's kind of annoying. Anyway overall. I LOVE facebook.

I've been a member of facebook for quite some time. I don't know how to pull up the length of time I've been there. But I know I've been there for at least 2 years.
