First there was Friendster, then Myspace.
At least Myspace allowed users to personalize homepages so there was no longer a need for terribly executed HTML pages on geocities and similar networks.
Facebook was great when it first arrived, simply because it was exclusive. When only university students could use it, it had focus. Now everyone and their mothers are on it. Seriously, it creeps me out to see my friends' mothers on Facebook. I prefer using it for school contacts rather than socializing. However, it has gotten to the point where it is constantly loaded with whatever each person's daily life is about, what they had for dinner, what her kitten did this morning, what his ex girlfriend said. It is becoming more and more lame and childlike. Oh, then the applications are just stupid, annoying flash games, many of which end in asking for your cell phone number so the sponsor can text your new quiz results to you and your friends! Give me a break, I am quickly beginning to hate Facebook.
Twitter...I won't even touch it because of the way Facebook has gone.
Now, Facebook is coming to the DS?
I bought the DS to play video games, not to read supposed IQ test results posted by a third party application about one of my friends to attmept to gain access to my information for marketing purposes....
YICH...
