Looking for another place to get creepy on the internet? Facebook (http://www.facebook.com) is now open to everyone. So come on in, join the fun, and start stalking.

I'm curious if their servers can handle unlimited pictures, and the obvious server loads, that are going to be coming their way. It'll be interesting to see what happens.

that news feed feature is now going to become even more pointless

yeah, the whole rub-it-in-your-face really did it for me. and myspace looks and feels cluttered and slow. hopefully this wont get too hectic.

to me, the only appeal of facebook would be that it wasn't overrun by 14 year old little girls. obviously the appeal wasn't high enough, since i don't have an account. but i think this ruins the only thing that facebook had going for it.

yeah, i know lots of people who will be deleting their accounts because of this.

i hated myspace, so i gave facebook a try. it's pretty decent, keeps me in touch with old/new friends minus the idiocy and mess of myspace. this news blows. i think though, that if enough people are pissed and make groups and petitions and all that, it might slow the turnover.. kind of like how the news feed feature was altered due to backlash.

I deleted my Facebook, I like the way it was set up but since I wasn't actually attending college, it was depressing seeing all these schmuks I hated from high school talking about how sweet they were now that they have degrees.

Just fix your privacy settings where no dumbass kids can find you. I agree that letting everyone have an account sucks horribly. But there are ways to make it where no one can find you on there.

I will help them out by not signing up. I can barely keep up with MySpace, and the last thing I need is another addiction to stalk people and see how unpopular I am.

They took the shittiness of the friendster format, added the annoying clubs that anyone can make like myspace, and then made it exlusive to college kids. Now they an annoying format where it tells you anytime a friend practically breaths and opened it to everyone. So good job???

yeah, i guess it's time to move on to another social networking site....and then another...and another..and another.
