myspace.com failed because it could not scale

I personally switched to facebook for two reasons:

got sick of repeated errors every time I browse myspace

facebook has better album permissions, (myspace has none)

as another comment said these look like bad design not bad scaling.

Many problems including not filtering user input and comments for CSS, JS, etc.

But main problem, they crumbled under heavy traffic
