Facebook Vs Myspace: Stalker Edition

A great woman once said “Friendship is more lasting than a relationship and more legal than stalking” And as we begin to enter the holiday season it is best to remember the ones who have removed us from their lives and find ways to claw our way back in. We’ve got two options:

Facebook & Myspace

Each has their strengths and weaknesses when it comes to creatively following the daily lives of our lost loves. Which one though is better? I’ve known of people, who are most certainly not me, who have had success with each. It all comes down to options. Facebook’s main draw is the ability to track your “friend” using their feed. This is most effective though if they actually are your friend. Plus if you’re not in their same network, good luck getting any information. Myspace on the other hand will generally allow you access to everyone’s profile. Plus, and this one’s a biggie, when you send someone on Myspace a message, you know if they’ve read it or not! They can’t ignore you forever if you keep sending messages. Plus it must mean they still care for you, otherwise they’d just delete it. Though this backfires when you send them a friend request and they decline. That is a pain like no other.
I couldn’t possibly come to a definitive conclusion. Perhaps you can. Send me your stories and I’ll follow up, because sometimes we all go to the dark side of technology.
