Many people have mentioned the possible demise of Myspace, but it doesn’t appear like it’s happening anytime soon. The website is already considered to be the world’s third largest and now they’re expanding into Europe with a French-language site. France has a huge social networking crowd, but MySpace has lost pace to competitor Skyblog.

According to latest data from comScore Media Metrix, which measures Internet traffic, Skyblog had 7 million unique visitors in France in November, compared with 1.3 million for MySpace.

MySpace is expanding into other parts of Europe, as well. In Germany, MySpace’s beta site has more than 2.4 million monthly unique visitors and will likely launch in a few weeks. An Italian site should be live within a couple of months, the spokesman added. MySpace’s Ireland site is still in beta mode.
