I've been using Facebook myself for the last few weeks. I like the way it lets you interact with other users via tons of downloadable "applications," not to mention the standard features such as sharing picures, notes, etc.
i have facebook. i like how it lets you put up so many photos and you can tag people. its been really great for all the people at home to keep up with me and to see what i have been up to here in japan.
I do both the Facebook and Myspace, but I don't use them as much as Mixi. Maybe because I live in the U.S. and most of my friends here are just a phone call away, as opposed to an easy but not personable way to keep in touch with my motherland through Mixi (also to beat the time difference).
Reading the Wall Street Journal a couple of days ago, I saw an article on the Facebook adding more sophisticated engines to identify each users interests to send them to-the-point solicitation email, yes, anotherjunk mail source being created.....
I use both Facebook and Myspace, but I definitely prefer Facebook. Myspace isn't as much fun and there seem to be more creepy people lurking there. Facebook does a slightly better job of maintaining who can and cannot see your profile. I'm with the others that get annoyed by some of the gadgets. Some are funny, others are just take up space. Not the mention all my friends keep sending. I'm so sick of all the zombie/vampire/whatever invites
I really like facebook because I hate talking on the phone. And I have many friends from other cities or who only studied in Canada for a short time and went back to their homes.
I'm a facebook user. I actually really love the site mostly because I can get in contact with old High School and College friends. And yes I love the downloadable applications for it too.
I've been using facebook for a few months n found it really useful to keep in touch w/ my friends in the US cuz most of them dont speak japanese and i luv the neat application stuff as well
i wish mixi had a similar kinda survice so that our home page (idk how to call it...) would be way more creative in our own way...
Hi.
I've got both facebook and myspace. But I wanna decide to use which one... I can't use both of them, just wasting time...
But most of my colleague of part time are in myspace, but to be honest I don't like myspace... Because I have to check messages and answer them so often... (I don't know well about it though...)
And some of my european friends are in facebook, but it is less flexible than myspace??
Anyway, I am taking photos, so I'd like to use the one I can show my photos better than the other...
If you guys know about the costamize of them, give me some advice...
i have both myspace and facebook. i have had facebook for about 4 years now. once i started using facebook never really got on myspace. though myspace odes have cool things about but to manythings that are uncool about it. i stick with checking facebook daily and mixi daily but only myspace occasionally.
myspace is stalkerish
facebook is less stalkerish and more friend based.
i've been using Facebook for 3 weeks now, and it is addictive. My friends list includes my extended family, friends, and people i know for way back when. The third group, i don't know why i have them. they just wanted to add me, and i have not heard anything from them. Maybe i was just another user they could add to make their friends list bigger.
other than that, all the plugins Facebook offers, lets you sit in front of your computer 24x7 and not get bored.
I like how on Facebook everyone has a real photo and you know who they really are. That's something you don't have on mixi, it makes the experience more realistic.
FaceBook is good, though I'm hoping it doesn't become too MySpace-ish now that the popularity seems to growing quite large.
On a sidenote, the NY Times ran a recent article about how the founder of FaceBook is getting sued by several Harvard classmates who claims the idea for FaceBook was stolen.
I've registered facebook this summer as a lot of my friends who worked with me has got it.
I like facebook and think it's useful coz i can contact with my friends easily and no matter how far we are, i feel close with them!
Of corse i like mixi as well we can get to know more about our friends...
I use FaceBook. :) However, it's starting to get really popular, and I don't like how people are making multiple accounts and fake accounts... It's very helpful though! I don't use MySpace though.
I use both Facebook and myspace!! Totally addicted to Facebook, and have created 2 groups already. Play scrabble in facebook everyday with friends.
If you are interested to play scrabble in facebook with me, send me a message and let me know!!
One of the things I like about Facebook is the way it lets the user upload pictures easily. Compare that to Mixi, where you can only upload five pics at once, and that you have to specify each picture to upload. The Facebook interface is 100 times better.
Facebook can allow to upload larger file picture .
The Facebook interface is far better, that's why that american guy (the launcher) have earned a lot of $$$ already.
And I really like the games and application on facebook! Kill a lot of time in office!
My friend who lives AUS recommended me to join Facebook.
so i tried to enter into it.
but i couldn't . it's difficult for me.
because i almost can't understand english .
haha・・
