The Wonders of Facebook

It's taken me a while, but i now see the wonders of facebook. I had a page on Myspace for a while, but the novelty wore off pretty quick.

Myspace is great for personalising, but for the technically inept, a site looks pretty bland, and too make anything intersting requires some computer knowledge. However facebook seems to bypass this. Although remaining customisable, its very user freindly. there are some very odd applications about to make your page that little bit more interesting.

The other thing that sets this site apart, was the ease of which you can find friend and colleagues (well in the uk anyway). You can import from many email accounts, or csv/tsv files, you can search by name and you can search by place/organisation.

There are a millions of extremely funny, weird and pointless groups to join reminding you that you are normal after all! I think this site deserves a 9/10 for usablitly and functionality. Im addicted. Give it a try.
