The FACEBOOK Thread

[Asteroid-Man]

Only 14? hahahahahahaha I have 516 friends!

Hard to believe I've gone up over a hundred since then...

A friend of mine convinced me to sign up for Facebook, I find it totally pointless. I'll confirm friend requests, but don't really spend anytime on there. Really what's the point of it?

If only one of them would actually talk to you in real life.

I'm more of a MySpace guy, if I do say so myself, but man...I despise this new Facebook. I can't find a damn thing on it and all this tabbage us really annoying.

The Facebook layout really has no affect on my overall life.

But because it has become a staple in my daily routine, at first I was annoyed by it, because I had no idea what the creators were going for with this facelift. I couldn't find anything, the wall seemed to have disappeared on me... I was a bit distraught.

Then I realized how efficient it is, because I no longer have to scroll through ten thousand stupid applications to post something on someone's wall. In fact, I don't have to deal with any ridiculous applications, because they now have their own tab. I don't have to worry about feeling "unpopular" because I have a lower wall post count than others, as the counter has disappeared; I don't have to scroll through the page looking for a specific piece of information... this is a far more efficient improvement than previous changes.

So I am actually pleased with the new Facebook.

I've gotten used to it. I used to lose my way around friend's profiles because they had so many lame applications. Now they are on another page. Only thing I want now is to be able to hide photos my friends tag as me from my own profile. My friend franki put some really awful ones up. Her flash is blinding so I'm always squinting. I'd rather old classmates didn't see them.

You can do that - adjust privacy settings.

New one takes longer to load then the old one

there's an option missing: I have a facebook but didn't notice anything

 

[04nbod]

thanks. I just set it to 'only me' but I'll have to see if it works from someone else

I never bothered with facebook, I had a bunch of invitations sent to my email, but I never signed up.

It's funny because people made facebook out to be the "sophisticated" alternative to myspace for college students and now it's exactly the same. So pointless.

 

[Max J Power]

I prefer the old layout, but the new one's alright.

The spamming is total proof of this.

 

[Dark Victory]

I don't know, I just made a Facebook about a day ago and I'm haering everybody complain about the new Facebook and I'm like

 

[Manic]

My friends and I are starting an online magazine, and it turns out everyone but me has been going over extra notes about our site on Facebook. I've been completely out of the loop. I pretty much had to sign up a few days ago. It's... it's weird. In all my days of using trendy sites like Friendster, Myspace, Xanga, ect, Facebook has the most chaotic layout I've ever seen. I have to search frantically for my Friends list, and I'm never sure when I'm simply viewing my profile or editing it. And dear god, it seems like everything I click puts a notice on my profile page. And I have no idea what Pokes and SuperPokes are.

And who the hell designs a control panel so strange that half of the navigational buttons are on a floating bar on the bottom of the window?
