Exactly. Myspace is a mess, Facebook is so clean, simple yet completely functional. Their advertising is clean and unintrusive as well, they also do a much better job of policing abuse.

I signed into my myspace after over a year and my mailbox was full of bullshit spam and the homepage has all sorts of flashing cheese dick banners. They try to offer so much it's counter-productive.

Facebook is social networking to connect with friends and family, that's it, and that's why it works.

It's the same reason Google works, focus on the functionality of the primary service your site is built for and it will be successful.
