| It's funny how FB and Google are bitter competitors, yet somehow so many people are STILL on Facebook, and not on Google+.
Just go, and let it fade out like Myspace and Livejournal. |

| It's Friendster that is Facebook's grandfather. And just like almost every grandfather, nobody visits it any more. | |||

| I admit, my grandfather's grave is a bit difficult to visit. I don't quite have the stamina to swim across the Atlantic Ocean and trek all the way to Germany on a regular basis. | |||

Originally posted by SirAileron But it would definitely worth it, not only to visit your grandfather's grave, but also to visit Germany!! <3 So, I just got on my Facebook page... and I'm not seeing the Top News thing, just recent posts. This got me excited, however i read that if you visit Facebook less often, you'll see more top stories, because you may just need to "Catch up." When you visit multiple times during the day, you don't need the top stories? I don't know. I'm not keeping my hopes up. |

| Anyway, when I was bitching on FB about a week ago about the update, it was all of this. Switching to UK never helped at all. Now I also have this annoying glitch where if I try to start a post out with a capital letter, it closes the text window on me. Same for if I'm chatting with somebody with their crappy IM.
Google+ apparently has voice and video chat. I also like their friend sorting much better, and profiles are a billion times easier to edit. If it stays this way, it might be the one that stays around for good, just as long as it doesn't do the useless updates that social networking sites are so fond of. |

| I've figured with FB, just hitting the blue triangle for each piece takes it off Top News (which is a bit annoying having to click out of all of those top stories, but it does make that all go away.
Kind of funny how many people are threatening to go back to MySpace.  |

| The only reason I really left MySpace was because none of my friends used it anymore. I tried going back again, but... they butchered it. :/ | |||

| I got a MySpace when it first started and never returned. In fact, I actually can't remember what e-mail I used to create it.
I had a Twitter account for all of 5 minutes before I deleted it. Yeah, definitely not going back there. |

| I had a twitter account that I didn't use, and then the mass twitter hacking happened, and I still didn't use it. My myspace... I just never did anything other than fill out my profile once, and I never looked at it again. xD
Funny thing, what really killed Myspace for me was that so many people decided it would be cool to have music automatically playing when you visit their page. I hate that crap. |

| I forget what finally got me off of MySpace... I think it was the changes they kept making that drove everyone away. | |||

| Oh my god, so much explosion of activity from Facebook rage. The irony is in people exchanging their Google+ info on it. | |||

| I think Facebook is sufficiently dead for me. Not that it's dead TO me, but that my feed is showing a lot less activity than usual, which is horribly depressing. It's like coming to the board to discover there have been maybe 2 posts in the last day. | |||

| I go on facebook multiple times a day, leaving it open in a background tab while I do other things. I don't seem to have the Top News thing, but I do have all the other annoying changes.
I got a Google+ as soon as it was open to the public. I swear it was taunting me with the limited field trial. I think this is my link. Also, I recently got a MyYearbook. It's like MySpace used to be. I swear, if you're female and have self-esteem issues, go there, slap up a semi attractive photo of yourself, and just wait for the mails to roll in about how gorgeous you are. I swear people there are desperate, but I love the compliments. XD |

| Whelp, my FB is transforming back I guess. I see the ticker on the right now, but still don't see those weird triangles in the top left corners on my wall or whatever. Guess it's only a matter of time.
It was fun while it lasted... lol. |

Originally posted by 7 Use cheat codes. Yeah, I don't use facebook as often as I used to. Sure, it was nice to keep in contact with people from high school and the sort...but let's be honest; they suck. With all the new updates, I'm probably going to stop using it all together. Like you guys were saying, that's what happened to myspace, as well. It's like every time I sign onto facebook, the entire world has changed. And then I black out and have a nice dream about ponies. |

Originally posted by Phoenixocracy Yeah, that's why I have like three high school friends on my Facebook. The whole site really takes the piss out of going to reunions. Mine isn't for another couple years, but c'mon, you can see what everyone's doing these days. I'm the loser who's only just NOW gotten out of college. 
As for the changes, seems like people have finally calmed down, but we'll see how it all blows over when Mark Zuckerberg finally rolls out the Facebook Timeline. |

I have a Facebook account, but only because I thought I was going to meet more Japanese people -- boy was I wrong. Now I only use it to check updates from different game companies -- I don't have any friends and everything is private.  I used to use a Facebook-like clone called Mixi (a Japanese social networking site), but they slowly started kicking out foreigners as of 2008 (I got kicked out in August 2008) and now you need a Japanese cellphone to get in. |

| That sounds pretty harsh, heh.
@Phoenix: Yeah, really. It's like ... "Oh hey a new friend request... oh THAT GUY, that guy I hated in high school. Cool". It's pretty much FamilyBook too for me. This Ticker thing pretty much seals the deal, I'll check it maybe once a week if at all now. |
