    Yeah Facebook has been a modern day AOL keyword to me for a while. It's a method to dumb down the internet for the mouth breathers. However it still hasn't made the jump successfully to smartphones/tablets which is where the mouth breathers are migrating to as they don't require a whole computer to use the internet to the extent that they do.

    Does this "Facebook/brandname" bullshit actually benefit anyone other than PR and marketing agencies? Do people really want to use the internet that way or are they just too stupid to use it any other way.

    I can see social networking side of Facebook slipping down into simpler more focused micro networks like Twitter/Instagram etc. The instant gratification of Instagram is something the catch all solution of the Facebook timeline can't compete with. Not sure what AOL keyword 2.0 part of FB is going to become instead yet.

    • 'Mouth breathers' is a wonderful term. Thanks for enlightening me :)Hombre_Lobo
