Facebook Fatigue
I am SO TIRED of hearing about Facebook. Which is why I was pleasantly surprised to see 3 posts from other people in the local area (all previously avid Facebook users, apparently) who are tired of Facebook and even walking away.
First there's Alan's post (he deactivated), then there's Tony's post (while I can't refute his perspective on ads, I do think it is working as their rev model unfortunately), and also Mark's post. This wasn't a coordinated effort.
Facebook DOES seem to be like a freakin' club. Viva la resistance!
Heh-- It was pretty peculiar that we all hit that wall at the same time... I think the meme is spreading.
I agree that Facebook is doin' fine with their advertising model... Though I'm not sure if they are doing as well as they'd like (and their investors would like). We'll see if they can maintain real growth without increasing ad saturation.

I have to say I agree with your post. But I have never been to the facebook site and never plan to go there. Believe it or not!
