Sometime since I wrote something on Facebook. Ah it’s been 2 years on the thing and I’ve finally come-up with a definition for it.
a platform for people to communicate with other people.
a tool which individuals and organizations can make use of to reach out to the common Facebookian
a place where you can create, share, enjoy and experience videos, photos, titbits, notes, pokes, and all other man-made time wasters.
A very broad definition(s) for Facebook which really is your Cargills Gedara Yana Gamang (or should that be Gedara Avilla Ice Gahana Gamang). Facebook is not just a youth thing anymore. My relatives from Europe have made contact with me and I must say having them as close a computer screen is something I have never experience before.
One thing about Facebook is that it’s shit easy. Communication – you can send messages to anybody and if they’re even a little active on FB you’re assured they’ll get it. Or you can chat with them with the new chat application. How awesome is that. Facebook is now systematically erasing not just rivals in social networking, but companies concepts and applications that are not in the same genre Facebook is in. I really don’t need Messenger, Gmail, Flickr, or the many other services out there which offer just a limited rabge of services compared to Facebook.
Facebook is like an excellent business model for Google. If Google was just a home page with Gmail instead of Facebook message, Google Talk instead of Facebook Chat and whatnot instead of whatnot, I think that would just be awesome.
One short coming with Facebook though, is the search. If they made Facebook Search just a wee bit more user-friendly like Google Search by offering search term suggestions like
Do you mean Tsunami?
Hopefully The Zuckerburg will do something about it.
