Social Network Battles

I have a lot of social network accounts. They're so many, I've lost track of them. There are three main accounts I have been updating. Facebook, Friendster and MySpace. I have a Twitter and a Hi5 account and some others I really don't remember actually.

Facebook has been gaining popularity and is still gaining more. Friendster users have decided to log-in their Facebook accounts for their virtual farms and restaurants. And yes, even their mafias. So what did Friendster do? It seems that the bulletins aren't that flooded anymore. So the light blue color turned to jazzy green. The smiley which was once in a diagonal style turned into an ear-to-ear smile with two eyes that looked like double quotation marks. MySpace added games and applications. And one common story in the three networks? APPLICATIONS.

Yes, you get to have Mafia Wars (Zynga) from all of them. Friendster has incorporated a lot of flash games on their apps. Facebook almost relied on player invitations and panel ads for the applications (it's better to have games that your friends got). MySpace...let's just say, I like them better to be music and video entertainment-focused.
