So you think Facebook is all the rave?

Nope - IMO Facebook is letting all its applications spam itself to death; the crap/value ratio is too high…

…but on the other hand - one cannot ignore the fact that Facebook is still growing and that a lot of people are still focusing all their time and energy into driving traffic to and from facebook. After all - even 2 % of the traffic generated from MySpace is enormous…

I am surely one of those old m….. ……. who have totally missed Facebook - I judged it as waste of time. And surely there is still loads of spam-like communication.

But one month ago my eyes were opened. My brother (24 years) was killed as a soldier in Afghanistan, and what happened at his Facebook profile really surprised me:
- a large number of his friends expressed their griefs on the wall
- many new friends has asked to become his friend after his death to help them to remember
- some have even contacted us (his family) to support us ad tell what he meant to them

This tells me that Facebook (and similar networks) also provides real value, and we (the older generation) will probably discover that eventually.
