  If you are on Twitter and Tumblr... Facebook becomes irrelevant.

  You can post cool shit on Tumblr and say 'smart' things on Twitter.

  The biggest thing about Facebook though, which is portrayed in the film pretty well, is it very much of a dating site after all.

    Creepy people do.– animatedgif2/2

  I've always felt that facebook's strongest point was as a living rolodex/contact page, and a lowrent reality tv channel.

  at any given point, you can pretty much contact or get in contact with just about anyone you've ever known...which is useful...beats having to go through old emails or old phonebooks or whatever, trying to find names and numbers...

  and it provides most people with just the right amount of lazy voyeurism....checking out anonymously how their friends lives are going etc....or old friends, girlfriends, etc etc....

  those two things alone make it valuable.

  i guess the fact that it's all together make it, essentially, an advertisers dream come true....
  in todays world of a million tv/movie channels there's little commonality left...used to be a time when 'everyone' watched show-x the previous night...now?...no....we're all in our own echoe-chambers, watching only what we wish...(which i personally think is just fine)...
  advertisers however, love the bang-for-the-buck payoff of having everyone's eyeballs all in one place....and facebook is that place..abc/nbc/cbs/fox etc used to battle it out for eyeball supremacy, but that is a train that has sailed ;) at this point, facebook is where the most eyeballs are....zynga games are the begining....wait til they figure out a way to have tv shows and live events on it....

  Have we learned nothing from the IT bubble of the 90ies?!?
  How many times do we have to say it: the real money is in defacing offices, stealing copper wire from out of the walls, buying off Aeron chairs from defunct companies and selling those off on ebay.

  i know nothing about stock,... but wouldn't Apple be something a little better to "buy into"?

  • If you think Apple can still grow, sure, invest. You invest where you think you can make money.– Gucci1/3

    But to answer your question from my point of view: no. The time to buy Apple stock and make money assuredly has passed.– Gucci2/3

    passed– Gucci3/3

  I remember back in 2005 (even folks commented here -- Newstoday.com) that Fb was just "another" pointless and useless social network, just like friendster. I think collaborators of NT (mike buzzard, and some other ones, have collaborated in the initial steps after FB left the boundaries of Harvard to the world.

  it's funny too watch these things happen through time, who would have said in 8 years, this school project would rule the internet? not me.

  pretty lucky shot by David Choe
