Microsoft said Thursday that its MSN Spaces service is the most widely used blogging product worldwide, according to data from research firm comScore Networks. Nearly 101 million unique visitors came to the service, more than double the traffic from last year. According to comScore, nearly one out of every seven Internet users visited an MSN Space last month.
"Consumers are enjoying MSN Spaces in record proportions as they embrace the ability to more easily share their stories and stay in touch with the people they care about most," said Moz Hussain, group product manager at Microsoft. "As more people discover how easy this service is to use and how it enables them to share so many different things with the people they care about most, we're confident that MSN Spaces will continue as the world's most popular blogging destination."
They forgot to mention that the 101 million unique users are actually 101 million unique companies disecting the site and trying to find something to sue them. For instance, MySpace is probably looking into suing them for using the word "Space".

Bah, the reason they can claim this is that all MSN chat profiles are now part of My Spaces. Check a profile you make a hit on My Spaces.....this is all double speak.

I've been using MSN Spaces for about 10 months. I like it because it's integrated with the most popular messenger client. I also read somewhere that Microsoft is going to incorporate it into other online services soon.
