image thumb3 MySpace loses popularity in the UK to Twitter

Twitter continues to grow at a very fast rate and it was only a matter of time before it crawled past one of the leading social networks in some part of the world. Well it has done exactly that as it grew past MySpace in the UK. Presently Twitter sits as the 27th most visited site in the UK followed by MySpace at 28. In terms of popularity it is the 4th most popular site behind Bebo at third and ahead of MySpace at fifth. What’s even more interesting is that third party apps like Seesmic Desktop and TweetDeck which are used widely by many users haven’t been taken into account, which might just make it even more popular.
