In August 2008 I brought up this topic of which social networking website is better –  facebook or myspace.

At the time, I was using both social networking websites. Trying to keep up with both websites was becoming too time-consuming and draining. To combat this problem, I first started using a passive aggressive approach – trying to stay balanced in my social networking website time or going through cycles of which website I was using more. This approach made the problems worse and morphed the two websites together – I call this the facespace stage.

Well, I can proudly tell you that I will no longer have this debate or this social networking problem anymore. I have taken Jesus’ advice from Matthew 6 where he says, “No one can serve two masters (or social networking websites). Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other.”

I am officially off myspace. No more friend requests from shady, barely dressed people. No more profile songs. No more trying to figure out how to write Internet code to have a cool profile. No more Tom. No more top friends.

I am proud to say that I am a 100% facebook guy now.

The words of a text I recently received from a teenager beautifully describes what I am experiencing because of this decision, “I just deleted my myspace! I’m free!“
