Adventures in Facebook, part 1
Is facebook worth it? Is it superior to MySpace (which wouldn't be saying much)? I just joined today-
Let the games begin!
So far, the bullshit meter is pegging high (or I'm just stupid). I see an inbox at the top of my facebook page saying someone has a crush on me! OMG! And I only just joined. What a wonderful system.
Turns out some zobes took the facebook look and feel and built and ad that looks like facebook but takes you to their crappy web site when you click on it. I guess that's what I get for being a facebook nube.
So, what I really need now is a facebook widget to strip out the ads. Wouldn't that be sweet. Of course, if would also destroy their supposed targeted advertising based business model (and a chunk of the $15B imaginary value) Oh, by the way, my facebook profile says I'm married and looking to network with people, not find a date. I guess that ad targeting algorithm is working real well.
Next up, finding friends in facebook.
