As an FB user I totally agree with what you are saying especially when it comes to users tell all and sundry what they had for breakfast and other such loblox after all who really gives a monkey's?
And it is correct that FB is a place where people can brag about what they have done, where they have been and even show off their photo's or purchases.
But isn't TMA a similar place in that respect?
I suppose what I mean is that me or anybody else can add an image or blog on here that is basically saying Look what I have done or where I have been. They may include useful information such how to get to a site but are also just as likely to include such information as the local pub serving a great pint or superb banger and mash...the only difference is that the audience here is a captive one in that we are all (well maybe not all) into the same sort of thing and so maybe don't mind. Whereas FB is for everybody, young and (not so) old, and you just need to learn how to filter out the noise that you don't want to hear.

I just hope this place doesn't start including Stonewars or Bronze Age Ville as part of the options though!! (FB in-joke there)

;o)

Why do people need FB to keep in contact with 'friends', don't you do that by normal email anyway? I joined but got out as fast as I could when I realised what a load of loons are on there! The world and his wife want to be your friend wheher you know them or not. I get pissed off by the FB logo appearing just about everywhere you go on the net, it's like a disease that they hope everyone is going to catch. Why?
