Facebook

Facebook has a news feed now....it has for awhile but so many things have been added to it ...you can give gifts to friends...and the layout is always changing as are the options availlable to make it more personal. It is crazy to me. I know i use face book as a glorified email but it so in depth now...is seems almost everyone has a facebook, or myspace. It is a whole new idea in social networking and communication. it is also intersting to me that the creator is a harvard drop out that is making tons of money...i was think abou this and then i was reading todbits blog and he brought it up to and is trying to do a podcast on it.

todbit's blog:
really think it’s time to do a segment on Facebook’s exploding popularity. Its adoption curve is way stronger than MySpace and it seems that “normal” people (not just teens and nerds) are really getting into it.
The CEO is a 22-year-old Harvard dropout who turned down a $1 BILLION takeover offer from Yahoo.
The piece would ’splain why Facebook, and other social media sites, are so popular and the impact they’re having on our relationships and the news business.
