Hi Francesca, if I thought my recommendations were only personalisation options, I’d have said so. The fact is, Facebook is exceptionally difficult to use, because of the reasons I state.

If you take the windscreen out of a car, adding a replacement isn’t a personalisation of the car, you’re really going to need that windscreen.

Facebook — that’s what many spend endless hours doing … it’s sad, but we see many kids just not building face to face friendships anymore … technology hey!

They are not actually fixes. Those are the features of Facebook itself that you can use to personalize your experience.

“There are things I want to share, but I know my nieces and nephews won’t care about. Similarly, I might be posting photos from a night out with friends that clients might not be interested in seeing either. So all we do is clutter each other’s news feeds, when a fix is a simple as being able to share to lists. It’s really that simple.”

This is what i do huh I agree with Bill, removing friends is a one by one for me and its getting to me!

I know it can be annoying to receive all of those email messages when posting on Facebook but you can turn those off in your account settings I believe.

Facebook is nice but it really is hard to control information on your profile. I wish they would fix that. One thing I would like to see is a mass unfriend button or tool in Facebook. The reason for this is because I spent sometime playing all of those dang Facebook games like Farmville, etc. and racked up a lot of “fake” game friends and since I don’t play those games anymore I want to get rid of them.

The bad part is I’ll have to remove 500+ people one by one. Not fun.

Interesting article so far. It is really embarrassing that I receive about 5 comments per day with the question how to hack Facebook to read the messages. I like Facebook but people should not use it to spam or to spy on any member.

“I get so many emails from Posts on Facebook”, I know how you feel I get about 30 per day.

Hi Robert, Google Wave is a collaborative tool and not a social network, so you wouldn’t be able to use it that way.

Very interesting reading. Thank you.

About the last bullet. Don’t you think the infrastructure that Google wave provides would work very nice as a foundation for your suggestion?

I have had this discussion with a few people and I would love to hear your opinion.

I get so many emails from Posts on Facebook, It’s just getting too much. Can this be switched off?
