Week 6: Myspace < Facebook

Although they are similar, Facebook trumps Myspace. It's disturbing how pervasive sites like these are, since they dismiss the need for human interaction. A very small minority of my peers choose to reject the "my face"/ "facespace" culture, but it's hard to do that when, upon meeting new people, you don't get phone numbers or email addresses, you're simply expected to "facebook" them.
I check my facebook at least 2x a day... sometimes more like 6. If I don't have any new notifications... i feel unloved. However, this is silly because the whole facespace generation has degraded the meaning of friendship. These sites count your number of friends like its a ranking of popularity. Most people have several hundred... some people have thousands. These people you have one class with or were once in a club together are not real friends, they are merely passing acquaintances.

oh dear... IRant.

Tom is a Libra... and creepy.

I couldn't load billiards, but I've played lots of online games before.

Insanaquarium is much more fun.

Also, why is evil so delicious?










Guy of Gisborne... so the villain... but why do i think he's a serious rival to Robin Hood's good looks?!? :]
