So as most people have probably noticed, facebook has expanded itself and "improved" once again. I was all for the photos, the wall, the education, work, and summer plans. I think the notes were a good addition, mainly b/c that's the reason most of the people who read this blog do so. [I realize the irony of saying "most" when there's probably not even enough people who read this to be a "most"]. But now I log in (by the way, I hate the fact that I log in. I'm ashamed of it. But I do it daily. Sometimes more. But that's neither here nor there). Now I log in and immediately I see who has just become friends with who (and when this happened), who just updated their profile (what and when included), who just wrote on who's wall (and when), etc. Pretty much any action within my network of friends--no matter how small--is shown to me. Someone told me that a friend of theirs changed their "relationship status" from "in a relationship" to "its complicated," and as soon as he walked in the door, everyone was asking him if he was ok. I think they should change it to invade-my-privacybook.
I suppose its up to the user how much they want to put into it, but it's just totally thrust in everyone's face now. Two of my friends have already wrote Notes about the new changes. Both were negative, and one was anouncing a move to MySpace. So at least I'm not the only one who thinks it's lame.
On a somewhat related note, when you go to a new school, not only do you meet a lot of new people, but you get a ton of facebook friend requests, which always makes you feel cool.
