Facebook....

Ok, so the new phenomena that everyone is talking about is facebook, the social networking site that took over from MySpace.

Ok, the reason i post about this is something that really bugs me. Don't get me wrong, facebook is really very fantastic. I've made contact with people I haven't seen for ages on facebook, and in that sense its good. But the extra add ons? Boy some of them drive me crazy! Like the zombie thingy-majigy- amabobs. I don't want to be bitten by a vampire and fight zombies! I don't want to race you! No, I don't want to junk up my page with things I'm not interested in! Ok, some of them are cute. Like the fluff friends. Those are cute, and funny. But why on earth would I want some gruesome pic of a zombie dripping blood from its mouth on my page? That's disgusting...


Apart from that, facebook really is quite handy, but at present leaves much to the imagination. "You were poked by soandso..." It's just text, no real poking going on. It WOULD be cool if it shook the browser or summat, but at present its quite dull...

So, that's my rant on facebook....

A Poem...

Ode to Randomness

What is it about randomness
That we want to be held in its sweet caress?
Why does it dance the way it do,
Is it even supposed to?
How does it take a grip on us,
It leaves us quite helpless.
