Based on the latest Alexa traffic stats, Zuckerberg’s Facebook has finally overtaken social networking leader MySpace in terms of reach and page views.
More importantly, Facebook has moved a notch higher to become the 6th most viewed Website in the world, a position enjoyed by MySpace for quite a long time.
Facebook continues to grow at a breakneck pace despite numerous protests about its plan to add more advertising features and Microsoft’s $240 million investment.
Even MySpace’s preemptive attacks such as adding Skype to empower voice communication and launching its own Web TV series did not deter Facebook from invading its territory.
The game is not over yet and nobody expects MySpace to take this matter sitting down. It only proves that even the king of social networking can bleed.
