Facebook introduced Timeline this week because they felt their website wasn’t quite overwhelming enough and that adding more complexity and confusion was in order.
This change represents the difference between having Mark Zuckerberg run a company instead of Steve Jobs. Because you can, doesn’t always mean you do.
Social network giant Facebook has unveiled new changes recently, including your “Timeline,” what CEO Mark Zuckerberg called “the story of your life,” otherwise known as “the return of old photos you thought you had erased of people holding your hair while you puke, which will render you un-hirable for the rest of your life.”
Your new, improved profile will include all your stories and all you apps in a beautifully designed new page. It’s really a sight to behold, especially the part where people are laughing at you on that puking photo.
Needless to say, there are many privacy and logistical questions that people want answered. Seriously, Facebook, how dare you change a free service nobody is forced to use?
I think we’re all familiar with Zuckerberg’s vision of Facebook everywhere and everything, but this latest Timeline change makes us a bit nauseous.
What ever happened to the quaint little service that lets me chat with friends and share photos, videos, and more. When did it turn into an FBI investigation.
For those of us concerned with privacy, we see the combination of Facebook and Google as the technological beginnings of a police state.
Did I mentioned I watched the premiere of “Person of Interest” last night?
