Ok, so you might be able to find people on there you haven't been in touch with for years, but if you really wanted to, there are a dozen other ways of finding long lost friends. As for Twitter. Who cares that I'm having coffee, shopping or driving my car? Really, who gives a damn and why should they?

I know a a little about IT. I've been working in it for a long time - maybe that's the problem. I don't know anyone who uses facebook daily, if at all. I've been there and there doesn't seem to be much to it. I double checked and I don't think I missed anything. I'm still here and existing nicely without it. Do you have msn? I hear that a lot. I use it myself because it's a tool that people have become reliant on and it works well. I don't want to log in to see how my friends are doing - I have enough to do. I want to be able to say hello and know with some certainty that they'll be able to say hello at that moment. Otherwise I'll stay with email, unless someone convinces me.

It is a way for you to keep up with networks of people about all sorts of details you couldn't care enough about for an email, phone call or IM message. Potentially it can expose you to friends of friends, others interested in the same things you are... but I think that is rare rather than common. The biggest thing to learn from facebook is a huge number of people (a really huge number) want that kind of service. I find that amazing but there you go. I still have to guess use will degrade but since I never would predict use would reach anything like these levels what my prediction is worth is questionable. I don’t think you are missing anything.

Man, I like that phrase. I don't get a lot of it either. It's sinking in bit by bit. Just sent some gifts etc. (yeah -kinda cool) It's just so much clicking around and testing to really see what's available and it's time consuming. Considering their beginnings it's easy to see how the college market along with alumni would be their next most likely to adopt FB. I just wonder how anyone who has been making several profiles even in just the more popular social sites throughout the past 5 years will be able to maintain them all. As time goes on how many will remain out-dated, unactivated ,archived histories of our past? Who's working on helping us manage that? Are we all going to have a day when we want to clean up and maybe didn't have a forethought to keep track of them all? I can envision a small discreet service biz potential of internet archive clean-up services. Wait? Do we have those already? Yet, when I attended Brian of Shareasale's early summit talk he showed some methods that seemed fairly significant. I have to go back and look at those again. Nice one Jim.
