« When Facebook Friends Fail »

Facebook friends are fickle.
Wait, check that.
Facebook is a great medium for fickle friends.
:-)
Everyone once in a while i will check for new friends on FB, and will be curiously surprised to find folks who have fallen off my wagon. I know, it's bizarro. FB actually contributes to a thicker skin, but seeing people --- and people you KNOW, not just internet random people fall of the wagon is unsettling. Hence this article.
Unsettled.
Of course, the chick in me wonders, "is it me?" Did I do something? Is it just FB? Do I post too much? Not enough?
Of COURSE it's personal. ;-)
Sigh.
I'm sorry my fickle facebook friends.

"Facebook friends are fickle”, yeah you are right about the fact...
it definitely is annoying quizzes and all other activities going all around on Facebook....but it entirely depends on you to be the part of these things after all it is social networking medium...

Ow I don't think we need to worry too much about facebook friends do we? Although some of your best friends are on there with you the relationships are not very real are they? I mean it's all alot of fun but really the most important thing is seeing people face to face right? I think if we accept that facebook friendship is very different to interactive relationships we should be o.k.! Never think it's personal!!!

FB is great for some purpose. Posting every two hours about what you just ate, or how bad you feel since your boyfried dumped you...this is shit! Quizz are shit too, but, well some find them funny. FB is good to see what people become : what they do, how they look like...

Facebook friends? I can't understand how people can have 600 contacts in FB...I wouldn't call them all friends! Nowadays people meet other people and the first thing they ask is your FB contact!
