Facebook has more US users than MySpace

I have hated MySpace for a long time now. I prefer Facebook, and it appears that many Americans feel the same way as I do.

From the Los Angeles Times:

Facebook Inc., after eclipsing MySpace in global users last year, now leads its social-networking rival in the U.S. as well, according to research firm ComScore Inc.

The Palo Alto, Calif., company had 70.28 million U.S. users last month, topping MySpace's 70.26 million, ComScore said. Facebook's users almost doubled from a year earlier, while MySpace lost 5%.

Facebook has more than 300 million users worldwide.
