Latest studies support Myspace is surprisingly not on life-support as many would expect due to the surge of competing social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. In fact a staggering 50.6 million unique users log on to their accounts each month. Interestingly enough, The Wall Street Journal reports that the majority of such users consist of individuals sifting through old photos, previously uploaded onto the site years ago for the week’s “Throwback Thursday.” Accompanied by the hashtag “TBT,” often the most nostalgic and embarrassing pictures from past times that are posted onto today’s Instagram/Twitter profiles originate from none other than Myspace. Let us know your thoughts regarding the relevance and usage of Myspace, and feel free to share your experiences utilizing the website as an online time machine.
