Earlier this week, market research firm Hitwise reported that the popularity of Myspace.com has surged past prominent position: In fact, Myspace.com for the first time fetched more market share than any other US website, including properties such as the main sites of Yahoo, Google or MSN.

It did not take long for some sites to challenge the findings and issue statements. Especially Yahoo was not happy about the report and accused Hitwise of publishing misleading numbers and not highlighting the fact that the Yahoo network has a greater reach than MySpace.
