Social Networking Stuff...


The new settings that are on Facebook are rather wicked and a bit confusing to some degree. I mean, If you would have to adjust your postings so that certain people CAN NOT read it, then why bother connecting with these folks in the first place if you're going be like that.

Also. it seems that Facebook has increased its status character limit to 500.

Hmm...these changes are very similar to another social network...


I would say that in light of this obvious "stealing of ideas" that Zuckerberg & Co. and shaking in their shoes, but I doubt.  Concerned, yes; but scared? Not hardly.  

You see, Google+ has what it takes to be a serious game changer in the social networking game as well as becoming a viable threat to Facebook's dominance.  However to quote PC World writer Tony Bradley, "Ultimately, the similarities are a problem for Google+ because users are already established and invested in Facebook, and Google needs to provide people with a compelling reason to switch."

So true, so true.

If you think think that quote is a bunch of baloney, let me remind you of another game changer that Google introduced to us not to long ago...

Let's hope Google get it right this time.
