Facebook

I don't understand social media.

And I don't see the need for it, it's almost as pointless as this blog.
But Gen Y have embraced it, presumably so they can avoid face to face contact.

Facebook is a tool which Gen Y use, normally to broadcast to the world their everyday events, such as not bothering to turn up for work, the size of their overdraft and their Credit Card PIN.

My issue with Facebook, is the way that it 'shares' information, and the way that anyone who is vaguely related in anyway to the poster, suddenly seems to have access to the whereabouts and goings on of them. I'm not 'on' Facebook, and never will be, but I get folk sending me emails with photos of me that they have found on Facebook.

One day I predict, it'll become clear that Facebook is a complete scam, and that all this personal information is being sold for no good, which is fine by me, because it'll mostly affect those stupid enough to use it in the first place.
