It is a marketeers dream.
people doing stuff on farmville
I dont know about that, id say it could get messy "i chekced in here a 100 times wheres my frisbee" ... people just checking in for the hell of it.
Don't shoot the messenger. The problem isn't Facebook. You just need some new friends.I just looked at my facebook account as i havent for a while. And its all sending gifts, people doing stuff on farmville and this "checking in crap". John just checked in at X hotel, mary checked in at UCD etc. There's very few people actually saying anything. It think people are going to get sick of this and go back to the odlen times of message boards.

And get to know how to use the Hide button.
I agree with you that it's not very sociable, but the 'hide' button solves the problem instantly.Im just making an observation on what gets posted. the observation is that people are moving towards auto updates either where they are or games they're playing and my poiny is its not very socialble.
BTW have you an issue with me the last time you commented on a post of mine is "the irony was delicious" because i had too much time on my hands (this was in refernce to a joke)... i asked what u meant by that an u dindnt explain. Theres something kind want in someone where they would use a phrase like the irony is "delicious". Please explain what u mean by this.
That's some memory you have!
No, I have no issue with you. I jumped to an incorrect conclusion in that thread, as I didn't realise that you weren't working at the time. No offence intended.
And get to know how to use the Hide button.
I hide applications (Farmville etc) rather than people.I've gotten to hiding almost everyone!
I guess the big difference is the 'broadcast' nature of these tools. If I post an interesting link or a photo, anyone connected to me (who hasn't hidden me) will see it, and has the option of clicking the link or ignoring it.When you remove the streams of nonsense it becomes obvious that there's very little to be said on these sites that wouldn't be as convenient to say in a mail or over the phone
