I have a long list of girls at work who got me joining facebook. I'm convinced it's so when I see them on it I don't throw a fit.

(says me, internet addict)

Facebook ROCKS! It's seriously better designed than Myspace and the whole way it works means you can keep in touch with what all your friends are up to, rather than wasting time making your page look fancy or adding people you don't really like so you can look more popular.

Oh and it's more private.

 

[Dr Dave]

Dr Dave is not on facebook either.

I actually deny people's add requests on MySpace.

And thats why they go onto steal your bikes

I got a myspace acct to promote a message board, but it really didn't do much good. I also deny people all the time, after I check their profile. It's kind of obvious when they're just trying to get people to view their webcam porn or if they like to hijack accts to spam.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

Yeah, there's one called "Alexa" who tries to add everybody, they have some webcam porn thing.

Facebook is what we call in the marketing fraternity a "sticky" site. It is exceptionally well designed.

You can shoot me now

 

[Fuddlemiff]

Why do you call it sticky? Where's the stickiness come from?

 

[headvoid]

You can't get off the fuckin thing, always something to click, amend, fiddle with etc.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Link me to the facebooks of celebrities I like.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

^ You can't view people's profiles(beside a small pic and basic details) unless you're friends with them. It's a useful anti-stalking feature. Bit annoying if you're the stalker, though.

Oh, that's very true. I'm always going back to it to change something or check if someone's added something. And I've barely looked through all those nifty applications and groups.

 

[The Dork Lord]

The Dork Lord is not on myspace or facebook.

 

[CaptainWacky]

[The Dork Lord]

Like EVERYONE I know is all GET ON MYSPACE!

And I'm like SO ALL MY EX'S CAN GET TOGETHER AND TALK SHIT!?!

I THINK NOT!

 

[Dr Dave]

I have no need for a myspace account!

 

[CaptainWacky]
