Referring to MySpace as the “ghetto of the digital landscape,” Harvard Fellow and Microsoft Researcher, Danah Boyd, indicated that MySpace users are more likely to be “brown or black” and espouse a different set of ideals in conflict with those espoused by the teens she surveyed over four years.

She said that patterns in migration across social networking sites echoed those of a white exodus from cities in the past. Boyd also said that teens who use Facebook are more likely to condescend their MySpace-favoring peers.
