Facebook beat MySpace

Facebook may have started to win the global popularity contest over the rival social network site MySpace, judging from some recent figures.

Last Month, Facebook had 123.9 million unique visitors and 50.6 billion page view worldwide, according to the research firm ComScore.

MySpace, meanwhile, had 114.6 million unique visitors and 45.4 billion page views.

According to the research firm, this is the first time Facebook has edged past MySpace in those measures. Facebook has its growing popularity outside the country to thank for the milestone.

In the United States, however, MySpace is still on top and pulls in twice as many visitors as its main competition on a monthly basis, according to the firm.
