From BusinessWeek:  Facebook Surpasses Google in U.S. Hits for First Time.

I post this out of pure snarkiness.  Rupert Murdoch bought MySpace in July, 2005 with visions of a Facebook dancing in his head.  In the interim, MySpace withered and Facebook exploded, now topping Google in the number of U.S. hits, which is just amazing.

And, floating around in the background are rumors that Murdoch is looking to dump MySpace.

Ha ha ha.

Again, I’m getting some snarky pleasure out of it all; such a colossal failure couldn’t happen to, ahem, a nicer guy.
