How is that ironic in the least bit?

There's a claim that MySpace gets more traffic despite the fact I used google to find an article pretaining to it?

ooooh, that is qquite ironic, ha.
very cool

It's really not the end of the world that he posts news topics to discuss. However ... Crazed, you might want to follow 2 rules.
First, don't make a topic you have almost no feedback, or in this case, facts, of your own to start the discussion with. If you can't make a discussion unique to your own standards, and fill it with unproven or false information, you're just filling our forums with misleading garbage that isn't worth reading. Secondly, pick only a couple worthy topics worth posting about in a day. When you can't follow these, then you don't really deserve to post in the first place.
If you have more free time to talk about every single topic in the news today, then I can only recommend that you start taking part in the world, rather then just watching it.

(Yes, that means get a life)

As for the topic at hand, the only way MySpace would be higher then Google is with bandwidth. Though, you never know. It could be in hits also, everyone knows those MySpace freaks click the Refresh button on their website like every 30 seconds in order to see if they have a new message. hehe

I'm only posting few threads a week now.
I didn't post anything to back up my claim because Grok doesn't want me to.

Topic:
That's what I was thinkin too, MySpace bandwidth > Google bandwidth. That'd make more sense than number of hits. Although, with Google Video now out i won't make much sense. I spose that article could be relying on older (pre Google Video) data.

Grok isn't an idiot, so I'm guessing you are and misinterpreted him some way.

Just saying that someone told you to continue posting but to leave out any actual info about your topic is retarded.

Just leave it alone.

Newby, or anyone for that matter, do you know of a site that compares the bandwidth from sites much like the graphs Newby posted?

video.google.com eats a LOT of bandwidth. I'm sure Google has more hits and bandwidth usage than MySpace.

Probably hits. "Daily Reach" meaning hits.

However, that's still a ton of bandwidth Google has to put up with. Far, FAR more than MySpace could ever dish out, seeing as how MySpace (from what I hear) is always breaking randomly...

Rank #12.

Rank #3.

It should be noted that Alexa isn't an accurate cross-section of the Internet population.

It's the closest you'll get to accurate, seeing as how it comes (came?) pre-installed on a Windows XP box.

You're right, it's the closest... but there's no accurate way

And yeah, I forgot that Windows came with free Spyware. So it's more accurate than I gave it credit for, but still not accurate.

myspace its self is a giant baked turd. The scripts running it are utter shit, they keep trying to add feautres and add features while their current scripts are buggy and inefficient, they clearly do not have skilled programmers. If I worked for google id be very offended that anyone would compare me to myspace in any way at all. The people over at myspace need to learn a thing or two about time complexity it seems. They using bubble sorts or something? Its horrible.

Id venture to say myspace eats more bandwidth because you have each myspace user these days with its whole music thing where bands can put up like 4 or 5 songs and then each user can add those songs to their profile, then the songs can be downloadable if the band so chooses. Then you have the whole pictures section. But a lot of content is also linked off of myspace, like any videos on myspace.
