It's difficult to maintain staying power in such a constantly changing virtual world. But hey, I'd take the temporal monthly revenue, however short lived!

They also do rather annoying things like automatically cutting out the word "style" in messages or # in your edit profile boxes so your design has to be class based and no ID's. Typical pages have up over 200 errors in FireFox's HTML Validator - and that's just the original source without modification. In terms of "better experience" as well, you'll notice if you browse for 5 minutes or so on the site, you'll start getting "unexpected error"s (they can't all be unexpected), when trying to post comments or messages - so you click back to repost your message. At this point, Internet Explorer wipes your message area clean, FireFox keeps it in there but the submit button is disabled anyway so you can't re-post. No other site gets these unexpected errors so much, so they need tighten up their code. Well, if you have a look at the myspace source code for personal pages – it’s a nightmare to modify.

Personally, I think facebook is so far in front of myspace in terms of UI & usefulness that it's not even funny. James-

Heck, I'd work for them and clean it up...
