AllFacebook: Facebook: Wake Up!

    The blogosphere amplifies everything, Facebook was never as good as the blogosphere said, and now its not as bad. Facebook were never going to get the whole of the Social Networking pie and the events of the last week have just emphasised that.

    Wow! That came off very harshly!

    You're exactly right. I also like facebook, but they are shooting themselves in the foot, and will damage themeselves permanently if they don't get going with some real rethinking and clear and *accurate* and non-condescending communication.

    I am delighted to hear that the major brands are staying away for now. That is the goal of the facebook group just started up called I Won't Shop At Sites that Have Facebook Beacon, at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=6285479023

    We don't want the retail sites we shop at to send all our Personally Identifiable Information (PII) anywhere - facebook or otherwise. Everyone needs to wise up to that simple fact.
