I’m not sure I get Facebook.

That’s not exactly true. I do understand what it is, and how it works.

The thing is, I don’t see how anyone can possibly visit all of their friends pages, and browse all of the stuff that’s there. Most pages go on and on and on forever.

I probably shouldn’t say that. I don’t mean that they are boring or uninteresting It’s more like there’s too much stuff.

It’s all important stuff, I’m sure. In fact, my page at facebook gets pretty long (and dare I say it) cluttered.

The fact is, the more “friends” you have, the more likely you are going wind up with a very long page. For example:

A typical Facebook page

 

The page

to the

left is

my sister’s

Facebook

page.

 

I’m not

 

picking on

 

her, or trying

 

to embarrass

 

her

 

at all.

This is actually an average Facebook page!!!

 

But, to prove

 

my point, because

 

by now you are

 

probably scrolling

 

down this page

 

and wondering

 

when exactly

 

I am going to

 

make my point

 

it can be more than

 

a

 

little annoying.

 

 

I doubt that I have ever made it all the way to the bottom of Sherry’s page, and actually read everything that’s there.

Maybe you’re not supposed to.

But that defeats the purpose of a “social network” if you don’t take the time to get all the gossip.

Okay, it’s not all gossip.

Since I only have a few facebook friends, I imagine I will eventually get through all of their pages. Only to have to start all over whenever I get notified of a “post to my wall” or an “invitation” to some new gadget that I can add.

How does everyone do it? No wonder some employers are blocking Facebook at the workplace. It can be a little time consuming.

I’m not suggesting that anyone change their facebook style or page. However, I have had people say “Did you see on Facebook that…”

Well, I probably haven’t.

I’m still working on my sister’s page, and I hope to be at your’s tomorrow
