Just how popular is MySpace?

The social networking site is clearly trendy among the teenage set. But can it really claim 100 million active accounts, a figure that has been bandied about? At least one blogger disagrees.

A post on the ForeverGeek site analyzed a random sample of 303 accounts, and found that only 42 percent had logged into their accounts within the past month.

"It turns out that MySpace really has roughly 43,000,000 users. Very unscientific? Yep. More accurate than the 100,000,000 myth? Damn straight. The 100,000,000 number is inflated by 133 (percent)," the author wrote.
