Do you do Facebook? I have an account here, but don't really "get it". It doesn't seem any better than crappy Myspace even though the technorati sez it is. Is it?! Tell me what I'm missing about it.

I'm with ya there. I just joined yesterday, hearing how it was great for networking for jobs, etc. as I am trying to get more freelance photography and design work. I'm already thinking of canceling, as every knucklehead from highschool has found me on already!

On top of that, I don't see much promise in all the claims that it's great for networking, as I may be missing something, but I couldn't even post html of my portfolio. I even tried to post in the "services offered" classifieds, and I got a message saying you can't promote your business, or services on there!

Seems like yet another circle jerk of popularity.

Hear, hear.

You said it! It's fun watching ex-girlfriends still single and miserable, ex-band mate jerks still trying to make it and nobody caring. mySpace has its entertainment value, to be sure.

I read some article that examined how facebook was laid out the way an autistic person organizes their thoughts.

I have neither facebook or myspace, but at one point I had both. My facebook lasted me about a week before I canceled it, but I stayed with myspace for a while longer. Facebook was WAY to formal for what it was and prevented me from really doing the only thing social networking sites are good for: looking at pictures of my ex-girlfriend and trying to find some visual indication that she is miserable.

its basically a place where all of your high school and college peers can look at you.
its a strange place. i have one, but i dont really do anything on it. waste of time!

Hahahah! Then I was correct: there really isn't anything special about it.

My wife is on it. She thinks it's fun...sounds like a chick thing.

No idea. I've you on there though. I remember that pic there. There's a pretty nice little garage group there.
