      Re: New facebook format

      This thing is f'n scary. I had deleted my account for about a year, then just reactivated it a few weeks ago. I may delete it again, this is just absurd. In two years Facebook will mail every student a webcam they can permanantly attach to their forehead so you can see what they are doing 24/7.

      That's about all they're missing now that they've added this.

        A friend and I were just talking about the Webcam thing... too funny.

        They need to change this ASAP. It's way too scary.

          MySpace is still better than Facebook to me.

                Myspace burns my eyes. It's so garishly ugly and annoying with those automatic songs and ****. At least facebook stays uniform(in a good way, where the focus is on the person, not the page design).

                Oversimplification is the escape of men who want to avoid the duty demanded by true understanding.

                    facebook response:

                    Calm down. Breathe. We hear you.
                    by Mark Zuckerberg 12:45am Today
                    We’ve been getting a lot of feedback about Mini-Feed and News Feed. We think they are great products, but we know that many of you are not immediate fans, and have found them overwhelming and cluttered. Other people are concerned that non-friends can see too much about them. We are listening to all your suggestions about how to improve the product; it’s brand new and still evolving.

                    We’re not oblivious of the Facebook groups popping up about this (by the way, Ruchi is not the devil). And we agree, stalking isn’t cool; but being able to know what’s going on in your friends’ lives is. This is information people used to dig for on a daily basis, nicely reorganized and summarized so people can learn about the people they care about. You don’t miss the photo album about your friend’s trip to Nepal. Maybe if your friends are all going to a party, you want to know so you can go too. Facebook is about real connections to actual friends, so the stories coming in are of interest to the people receiving them, since they are significant to the person creating them.

                    We didn’t take away any privacy options. [Your privacy options remain the same.] The privacy rules haven’t changed. None of your information is visible to anyone who couldn’t see it before the changes. If you turned off your wall to non-friends, no one who is not your friend will be able to see a post on your wall. Your friends can still see it; it hasn’t changed. Secret groups and secret events remain secret from other people. Pokes and messages remain as private interactions. Nothing you do is being broadcast; rather, it is being shared with people who care about what you do—your friends.

                    We’re going to continue to improve Facebook, and we want you to be part of that process. Test out the products and continue to provide us feedback. Use your privacy settings so you can feel most comfortable using the site.

                    We hear you, and we appreciate the feedback.

                    Stay tuned... Mark

                      A) You can turn off songs to start up automatically.

                      B) I've met and contacted far more interesting people through MySpace than Facebook.. not to mention that you can find some really good musicians on there as well.

                          That response isn't good enough, they have to remove it completely.

                            I've deleted just about everything in my profile and then deleted the mini-feeds that come with every change.

                            Now, my page is basically empty and people don't have a clue how it happened! Haha!!!

                            ok...
                            "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

                                stop using their free service if you care that much. sorry guys. but get out there and TALK TO your friends.

                                my school UNM blocked this site last year because too many people were checking there crap online while other students waited to print stuff for SCHOOL. they petitioned and i think won.

                                if only people cared about stuff that truely matters as passionately as they care about this free "GIFTS". just like OS, its not our right, its a privelege
