Blog Assignment #37

Facebook is a social networking site that is extremely useful but potentially deadly. Facebook lets you update your status from where every due to the via text option and see from wherever via Facebook for iPhone app. The site of facebook is useful for communication and entertainment but can be a threat due to unwanted people seeing your status and knowing where you are or will be, hunting you down and killing you in broad daylight. So, facebook can be an awesome place to be if used correctly or a place of torment and fear it not used right. People cyberstalk, bully and gossip via facebook but they also start prayer chains and inform through facebook too. Ergo, giving everybody your info on the world wide web=stupid, dead you. Also, facebook is addictive. Especially farmville. almost half of all users of facebook play, or have played farmville and of the users of farmville spent $725 million in 2009. The game is dreadful and there is even a Farmville Addicts Anonymous also on facebook. i do not play farmville but I am on facebook whenever i am on the computer has a secondary page and I use the communication aspect of the site for communicate and entertainment and I play with pieces of Flair (like virtual political buttons) and happy aquarium (where i have fish tanks of multicolored fish, decorations, and other sea creatures such as penguins and sharks). I like these games and but I will not call them addicting because I go days at a time without getting on flair and aquarium was a phase that i have grown bored with. i don't get the people who play the same game everyday for over a year. Flair is the longest thing I have ever played and not consistent because it is set up that way and went out of the "in" a few years ago.
