That's why I don't have facebook.
That, and because I hate taking photos.

Seriously, I doubt that this will even NEARLY kill Facebook. Remember Google Buzz? The "facebook killer"? Well, Facebook is still alive and kicking, but I doubt that anyone uses Buzz. And as for the point about how "Facebook owns the rights to all my photos! Oh noes!", it's really your fault that you agreed to the terms and conditions. If you had read the fine print, you wouldn't have posted those photos in the first place.

What the hell is this Facebook bull♥♥♥♥? There's no way it'll displace Myspace; there's no ♥♥♥♥ people on it at all, and you can't even customize your profile!

What the hell happened to making your own webpage and adding 5,000 links to other people's pages with animated GIFs anyway.

Piczo is indeed the ♥♥♥♥.

And what's all this about webpages? I find the best way to express my individuality and connect with friends is through inviting them to my virtual hotel room.


Honestly, Facebook seems to be doing its job. It has a purpose, it fulfils it.
At the moment, it is comparable to Google or Wikipedia in its usage.
Google recently changed its user interface, though, and I don't see anyone threatening to leave it and use Bing.

Google changes it's interface all the time, it's never actually "something new" in the sense because they done it already. It's just different.

In regards to this Google+ thing: unless it has something SERIOUSLY AWESOME to offer, or if EVERYBODY IN THE WHOLE DAMN WORLD IS USING IT then I won't switch from Facebook.

Hell, I barely use Facebook anyway. I added all my friends, wrote up my interests and such for the hell of it and add photos just to get them onto the web and out there. I don't play games, use apps (except vvvvv rarely) and I barely use the chat or PM system.

TBH, I only use Facebook for what it was designed for IMO: connecting friends. I sometimes read through my whoooole update feed just to see what my friends did or are doing (and quickly get bored with all the Likes and stupid games and ♥♥♥♥).

I have an idea: someone make a Facebook timer that records how long you spend on it. I bet mine will be below 24 hours and I've had it for a couplea years at least.

All in all, I'm using the Thing© that most of my friends are using, and if I need to get in touch with a friend who's using something else (eg Yahoo, GTalk etc) then I'll make an account.

Assignment: Google my username here and tell me how many results come up. You might even find a picture of me or my home address. I don't care.

Google+ is much better than facebook
1. Its made by google!
2. Its not blocked by my school proxy
3. nobody I know uses it
4. So many awesome features, and CIRCLES (which are truly pointless) but they are useful!

If this is on your list of defining features as a good social network, you're probably doing it wrong.
