If you are a member of Facebook, MySpace, Flickr or Blogger then you can get free photo scanning from ScanMyPhotos.com. This is normally a paid service, but ScanMyPhotos.com wants to redirect their free campaign, which they also did for the Writers Guild of America members, to the users of these four top social networking sites.

CEO of ScanMyPhotos.com, Mitch Goldstone, said that he wants users of MySpace, Flickr, Facebook and Blogger to digitize all of their precious analog photos that they might have sitting in their shoeboxes at home. Goldstone also said, “We selected Facebook, MySpace, Blogger and Flickr social networking members to receive this $49.95 value because they represent the most cutting-edge and innovative group of consumers. In exchange, we ask people to post reviews on their experience with our scanning and digital imaging photo center.”

Most people believe that facebook is better than myspace and is more organized and that Myspace is only better for bands etc, but Facebook could trump that card without too mush hassle if they wanted.

New Trends In Online Traffic

The dramatic success of those Internet categories is apparent from a recent online-traffic analysis provided by market research firm ComScore Media Metrix, which examined visitor growth rates among the 50 top Web sites over the past year.

Top-ranked sites growing the most, ComScore's data showed, were Blogger.com, a personal publishing site; MySpace.com, where young people do virtual preening and share musical tastes; Wikipedia, an open reference site jointly edited by millions of people; and Citysearch, a network of local guides focused on cities.

Basically, visits to Sites for Blogging, Local Information and Social Networks Drive Web Growth

A datasheet is on the right

Anyway, while the news is good for both myspace and blogger, I reckon myspace needs to upgrade their blogging facilities.

All the best for them
