Because MySpace is g@y.

Because its the only connection website for college students and it took off from there..so many people heard about it and wanted to be on it, FB expanded so that anyone can get on it. but it is geared for college students.

i think FB took ideas from MS and just flipped it. To me FB is annoying now, too much crap on the site and it makes your page look crowded..

'cause they were just written up in TIME magazine. Them and myspace.

I think since many people go on it and want all their friends to go on it. and myspace sucks

Facebook became successful because they started out catering to a niche market. When it was only for Harvard students, students at other schools wanted to sign on so the website expanded. Then high school students really wanted to join, so they expanded again, and then they opened it up to everyone. It wouldn't have been popular if it was open to anyone from day 1. Look at what happened to Friendster.
