“Timmy wets the bed.”



Via Ad Broad and comes a look at Facebook circa 1950 as imagineered by YourTango. The demo growing the fastest on Facebook is women 55+, which this seems addressed to. (Wonder what the fastest-leaving demo is made of.) Ad Broad also looks at what the purpose of Facebook vs. a Twitter is for many. I come at from the POV that demos don’t matter to me; I use whatever lets me talk with someone the easiest/quickest way possible. If that’s a note on Facebook because that’s what that friend uses, fine. Others, I’ll direct message on Twitter. And still others, IM is all they use. Feels more like a case of having to adapt to whatever it is your friends use rather than hang somewhere according to demo.

Regardless of whatever you use though, when one of your friends is a communist, your duty as a good citizen is to let everyone know everywhere you can.

passiveaggressivenotes.com features some hysterical FB faux pas; for example: http://www.passiveaggressivenotes.com/2009/04/28/some-advice-on-roommate-living/

As for FB-based "hate" groups, here's mine:
