Is Facebook Turning into MySpace?

As Facebook owners continue to see new applications being added to their precious alternative to MySpace, they might be experiencing the same thing that they experienced with MySpace. As of Marth 24th, we saw the application section of Facebook open up. Originally this wasn't such a bad idea because I figured it would add some spice to the Facebook service, but now it is just getting plain ol' ridiculous. There are so many applications on Facebook now that you can basically call it MySpace's twin.

Let's discuss a few of the annoying applications that Facebook developers have added to the service, shall we? Something that is very similar to MySpace, Top Friends, has been recently added to Facebook. You may add up to 24 friends to this list, which takes up a lot of space. Ok, even though this is similar to MySpace, I can accept this. Second, there is a graffiti application titled "Graffiti", this is just stupid. MySpace also has a program similar to this that people can add, but it's just not needed on a service as mature as Facebook. You can scribble on your friends walls, but why do you need to do that when you can just write on their wall? Simple things do not need to be upgraded, please.

A couple other applications that aren't AS annoying as the others, but are still pretty pointless are the Hot or Not and Favorite Peeps applications. First off, the Hot or Not application is basically something where you can rate your friends from 1 to 10, a scale that ranks how "Hot" or "Not" they are. Anyhow, it's pointless and there already is a website out there that allows people to do that. As a matter of fact, there are probably hundreds of sites out there that allow people to do this. Secondly, the "Favorite Peeps" application is almost identical to the "Top Friends" application. Why do we need another one? It's just stupid, like I said before.
