Rupert Murdoch: Facebook is Just a Directory (readwriteweb.com)

yup. and myspace has a more beautiful design, too ;)

that may have been true a few years ago but I doubt anyone (except for Rupert, apparently) would argue that FB is nothing short of a full-fledged application platform with millions of built-in customers.

I can't take this guy seriously. Has he ever used his own product? Abysmal.

I don't think he is the type of person that is going to go on record conceding that his massive investment is losing out to a competitor. He is right about sharing music (can you create artist pages on fb?), but he's wrong about sharing everything else, photos, videos, thoughts. Facebook is more then a directory.

Well, if he is still using myspace, at least he is not a racist :)
