Thread: To Facebook Or Not To Facebook

We've all heard about, we all know what it is and I'm assuming that most people, also at the WRF, use it.

I'm one of the few people who did not follow the trend. As much as it can be useful, I've watched how annoying it can become. A culture of watching other people's lives emerges, which is something I hate. When you have 200 friends on your list and everyone expects you to write a comment about this or that picture, take the 'How Well Do You Know Me' quiz or re-poke, it really becomes a full-time job.

I rather stick to E-Mail and Cell Phones for now. As a careful observer of online market trends, I think Facebook will soon loose out to Google. The search engine giant has a huge project in the pipeline that will let Microsoft think twice whether the $250 million dollar check for a single-figure stake in Facebook was a good idea

I am just getting into facebook for marketing purposes

Go ahead and add me please

I don't do any of it either. No Facebook (although my sister insisted she have a picture of us on hers) Myspace, ICQ, Messenger..

WRF is all I got baby And I'm quite happy with that

Some people are just terribly desparate for attention, and will go to great lengths for people to 'pay attention' to them, they put themselves out there all willy nilly. It reveals a self-centred individual with low self esteem. That's my professional opinion

I have other views on the whole 'Hooking up with old friends' bit too. Anyone who is in a commited relationship, and their partner starts going on Facebook, Classmates, etc. should take notice. The primary reason is just that. To 'Hook Up'. Pay attention kids...

*I don't think your troubled Fahad That's a good use for it

Are you talking about me?

What made me into Facebook are the events and groups.

It's good to get events news from your network and to get news from the groups.

It works great in my motorsport network.


I think WRF should start a group their.

Why don't you spread the word on the WRF there? Then you can do your marketing here
