BTW was just On Facebook checking out Athens Ohio's Page. Apparently they didn't get your memo about FB being only about entertainment and only for Narcissists.

Also read an earlier thread on FB where they linked to the Police dept that was responsible for arresting the Marine at the Walker Recall rally. Seems a lot of people are using their FB page to register displeasure over the Police Dept violating the Marine's Constitutional Rights. Guess they didn't get your memo either.

hahahaha Keep flailing Sparky.

It seems the Market knows the value of FB or the lack of value and that is what counts.

So, now you go back the view that FB is a social network-so what!

LOL!

Since you want to make an issue of FB being used to protest,here is an example of the other side FB's 'social' value,

Facebook killer sentenced to life for teenager's murder Peter Chapman, who used fake Facebook profile to lure student Ashleigh Hall, told he must serve a minimum of 35 years http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2010/mar/08/peter-chapman-facebook-killer

Keep them coming-sparky.

Figure out Says law yet?

By the way, I never said that FB was only for entertainment and only for narcissists, so don't misstate what I said.

I stated that was the primary use of it and that it was popular due to it's appeal to narcissists.

I never denied that FB has some legimate social network uses, but they are small in proportion to it's use simply for people talking to one another about what they are doing.

Don't go trying setting up strawmen.

We are discussing the real value of FB, which is very small in relationship to it's popularity.

Facebook and other popular social sites that operate in the United States currently maintain an age limit to avoid the cumbersome restrictions of the 1998 Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), which requires commercial websites to get parental permission before collecting the personal information of any user under the age of 13. COPPA can’t protect kids who join in violation of Facebook’s rules anyway, and so concerns such as privacy, online predators and bullying remain.
