MSN Spaces Sees Record Traffic

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."
