Facebook

Facebook is a technology that I think is going to contribute to a major problem.
Yes it's fantastic for contacting old friends, sharing photos with relatives overseas and meeting new people, but I can't help but feel if you really wanted to speak with old friends they wouldn't be "old friends" would they, they would be your friend!
Personally, it is creating a means by which people can find out a lot of things about a persons life, there favorite things, people they talk too, where they go, what they are eating etc etc. It has been nick-named 'Stalkbook' and it isn't hard to find out a lot about someone is it? Facebook makes this easy for you!
Where will it end? Facebook is creating an addictive medium in which many people are getting obsessed with other peoples lives and is pulling people away from interacting face to face like going for a coffee with a friend.
That's enough about that, the actual technology is fantastic, the interface is extremely user friendly and its features are brilliant. The photo albums are great, allowing users to easily upload photos, 'tag" their friends and allows everyone to see what you did on Saturday night, even you enemies!!!
If your wondering, I do use Facebook, I check it from time to time, though never have sat there for hours on end, in my spare time i'm busy exercising, seeing my mates, having coffee's and having a beer at the footy, you can't do that on Facebook can you???
Maybe in time....
