Facebook recently overtook the number one worldwide visitors title from Myspace but Rupert Murdoch & News Corp. are probably not concerned. In July 2005 News Corp. purchased Myspace for $580 million.

Just as I feel that higher gas prices will lead to new transportation inventions I also feel that a decline in web traffic (due to ineffective SEO) will lead to higher EPVs.
