    What is wrong with you people? Are you that pathetic that you need to beg people to help you figure out how to make life better through Facebook? Do you whine to your precious "friends" on Facebook when Vortex is down, you get caught cheating, or you get spammed?

    Personally I wish FB went down more often. I really don't understand the draw of that website.

    It is terrible for sharing photos (the one thing I actually use social media for)

    they make no bones about selling all of your info

    if your mom isn't on it then she will be soon

    I have nothing to say to my friends from fourth grade

    sometimes i use it daily, but typically only to check out what friends are doing and maybe message them for an msn style IM convo.

    i also like it to browse & see what high school acquaintances have gotten up to in their lives sometimes.

    and i do use it to keep in touch with family/friends who are regular facebook users vs. email. plus i guess the whole "find a friend" and suggested friends etc features have made me communicate with them there vs. email as i never had email addresses for cousins in other provinces, but facebook suggested i friend them & then we keep in touch via fb every once in a while vs. hearing from one another maybe once or twice a decade.

    and for family & friends who post pics their regularly. family pics, kid pics, vacation pics, sports pics etc.

    and it's just one more text based communication medium to communicate with my deaf friends for the ones that use fb.

    and i have used fb commercially when i ran fb ads for a small business in the past. and i've since used it to advertise in the marketplace classifieds, help others do so for rental properties etc.

    but i never update my profile pic, never upload pics, never update my status w/ the exception of posting something like "lost my phone, send me numbers" or "msg me here or email, phone is broken" etc once in a blue moon.

    i haven't been on fb for a week or so now, though.

    but i guess overall i like it & because i'm a time wasting internet junkie i end up using it a fair bit to keep in touch with a handful of ppl.

    When FB went down today I almost died, but only because it is usually a reliable distraction from actually studying for my finals.

    Facebook used to be good before it became saturated with all these retarded features that nobody needs. The fact that you can tie in a twitter(which, is by far the most stupid of all social networking sites, 10x worse than facebook) is even worse.

    It used to be status updates, post pictures, post on walls, that's about it. Now there's idiots liking EVERY SINGLE THING, a really crappy instant messaging feature, all these stupid little features for it that cluttered everything up and made it a lot worse to use.

    I do have a facebook account, I have not updated any of my personal info in about 2 years and I usually just go on to make plans for the night.

    The one thing that I can't stand about the social networking sites is that they turn every bar/ get together a photo shoot. I don't even take a camera with me when i go on vacation why the hell would I want pictures from my usual spot?

    Another point. 90% of the time it's dumb chicks bringing their camera to the bar, making retarded poses of them and their friends(you get the typical all of them lined up one, the one with all of them putting their 1 foot in the middle and somebody taking a picture above etc..) and then you can even hear some of them at the bar screaming "OMG NEW PROFILE PICCCC HAHAA"..

    Also, when they get back from the bar and make a new album for the night, WHY DO THEY ALWAYS NAME THEIR ALBUM AFTER A RANDOM LYRIC FROM A SONG THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING??

    I use FB and I'm not ashamed. But I also didn't even notice it went down.. I don't waste much time there. Now when vortex went down, I actually freaked out, until through multiple panic-stricken Google searches I found the temp address. But who do you even bitch about that to if you ever want to get laid again?

    When I heard FB went down, I watched The Social Network. If you can't have the real thing, the Hollywood version is a good substitute.

    Yeah like they're somehow self-proclaimed cool or better than others because "pffttt, I don't need it!"

    Meanwhile they can't think of 25 people they'd be friends with to warrant opening a facebook account.

    FOREVER ALONE!

    *I have a FB account, but i'm not obsessed with it. Don't update status that often, I use it to keep in touch with some friends who moved out west for jobs.

    I laugh at people who think they have an OPTION.

    You really think if the gov't wants to know about you that they don't have the power to do so? Have you seen Google earth? Do you think that maybe, just maybe they have the technology to monitor your every move via satelitte if they so wished? Or cell phone history? Or banking information? You think "facebook" is the only way they could possibly know who you hang out with if they wanted to or your buying patterns? You ****tin' me?
