"Can I say you're my girlfriend on Facebook?"

it wasn't THAT funny, but I chuckled

he doesn't give a fuck and i think we should learn from him.

that the guy is only 16 or 17 was something else I forgot to mention.

I like the 6h+ time difference between "id hit that shit from the back!" and "and from the front"

had to think about it

Probably merits a thread of its own for what you can turn up.

People really need to learn about those privacy settings fast.

great point

scheduled my facebook account for deletion. Spent so much time checking it, yet so little of the updates i read were of any interest to me. A bit like ilx, lol.

i do feel a bit of regret or whatever but all in all i'm glad i'm doing it.

why regret?

Movie depicts seamy life of Facebook boss

Sorkin’s screenplay suggests Parker knew Zuckerberg was driven not just by money or fame but also sexual insecurity. While he is depicted as receiving sex in bars, Parker runs the business...

Critics who have seen the draft script for the film, which is being produced by Kevin Spacey, artistic director of the Old Vic theatre in London, and directed by David Fincher, say it portrays Zuckerberg as a “borderline-autistic conniver”.

Stoked!

that film is gonna own so hard imo

the long-suppressed story behind the facebook poke button finally revealed

why regret?

sometimes people post funny links. or informative updates, cool pictures, whatever. basically i'm going to miss out on some cool stuff but it's worth it because i'll avoid wading through all the dross and wasting so much time.

yeah, i hear you. the only reason i'm still on there is because, sadly enough, i'd literally lose contact w/ a bunch of ppl, probably permanently, if i were to delete my account. anyone else feel the same way?

The social networking site that that improves on FB but also has a way for you to easily keep or transfer a lot of your friends/contacts to their site will make a lot of money imo.

any opinions on these guys diaspora? a winningly simple concept, I think: basically, a social network where your personal content (updates, photos, etc etc) lives on your machine instead of their server, so you keep control and ownership. scheduled to launch in the autumn. from the video featured on that site, the guys involved seem driven and nerdy enough to make it work imo altho I guess aesthetics and usability issues are always going to be a concern.

biggest problem w/ Diaspora is gonna be complexity & user adoption. no one's gonna set this shit up, imo, and it will have barely any real impact

facebook delex0red. Fucken thing. Never used it anyway.

new ILTMI board description???

i was amazed when i googled myself last week (after an interview, just to be sure) and all these old messages i had made on (public, i guess) groups years ago popped up. they were never googleable before. so i had to delete a ton of shit in a hurry. not cool.

Gah, my computer's full enough as it is.

same here! getting really sick of this shit

I have a very googleable name so it's esp worrying

luckily it seems a lot of people with my name are more famous than I am

I just get loads of shit about a town planner in Springfield, Illinois.

gah this shit gets deindexed eventually if it's deleted, right?

as far as i could tell my stuff got deindexed pretty much right away

whether or not it's actually deleted from facebook's internal servers is another question

I hope zuckerberg gets a horrible disease soon

The Facebook fallout just keeps accelerating. At this pace we'll be chasing Zuckerberg out of town with pitchforks and fire by August am i rite.

"Myself and my associates here have a little bet going as to whether you'll tell us everything about yourself, no matter how embarrassing or damaging, in exchange for playing Farmville. Rupert says they'll never go for it. I say they will."

The scanner is a little too rigorous on privacy imo. I currently have everything set to friends only, except that anyone can friend add me, and anyone can message me. The scanner sends a caution message because of this. Like -- I definitely think some privacy and vigilance are good, and I realize the scanner isn't enforcing anything just suggesting, but what's with people not letting anyone friend them? Just click *no* if you don't know the person.

Hmmm. That was smaller than expected. Anyway, "hippocrates or wat" - I can't decide if this is unintentional or not.

it didn't alert me to turn off fr's, but that would be a bit much if it did.

kinda wanna poll hippocrates vs wat tyler

I'm guessing "hippocrates" was an auto spell-correct of whatever hideous non-word he typed? Just guessing.
