Down the poop shoot?

I think Facebook is becoming a virtual magazine, with mostly ads and not much real content. I speak from the view from my PC, because on my phone I don't see that. I don't own a tablet so I don't know what it looks like from there. I guess I'll stay off the computer when viewing.

So pathetic what always happens to good sites eventually.

Thoughts?

Wait, facebook was 'good'?! when was that?

Since they went public it's a Social Marketing site not a Social Networking site anymore. That's just my opinion mind you from reading a lot of complaints online. I haven't really even looked at Facebook since shortly after it came out back in 2004.

Can't argue with that logic. I didn't even get MySpace (yes, I had it once) until Christmas of 2005! I watched "The Social Network" and forgot when it came out. I enjoy helping stay in touch with people and letting them do the same with me, that's all I want it for. It's too bad that it's not just pure networking though. I know you may say Google+ does that, but I had it and never really used it.

Once I found out about facebook's crazy sharing of its users' data, I deleted my account. I barely used it anyway, so it wasn't a big sacrifice! I never liked facebook, thought its interface was awful and clunky and non-intuitive, and figured that anyone I actually care about and want to keep in touch with I will by phone, e-mail, in person... I have no need to broadcast every time I use the bathroom, complete with photos , nor do I care to read about my friends' toilet habits. Seriously, people who can't fart without posting about it on facebook are, in my [rarely ever] humble opinion, pathetic.

And by the way, NO ONE can actually have a million "friends."
