An interesting debate over this Facebook debacle. I’m glad that Matt Hicks responded directly but it does seem fishy that the code was outdated…why not say, hey – originally, we didn’t think it cool to allow polls comparing our product to MySpace et al. The thing is, it’s better that they do allow such polls since it can help them gain further insight on what people think of their product, etc.

The companies featured in the F8 launch were prohibited from saying “like MySpace” in any press release referencing Facebook – as well as “social networking site” and “college aged site.” Hah!

Peter, some of us consider the music one of the biggest *detractors* from Myspace. If I feel like listening to music, I’m already listening to my own. Otherwise, I don’t want to hear it.

I also don’t mind the lack of customization options, quite simply, because most Myspace pages I’ve seen have been customized to look like completely illegible crap. The Facebook team has put together an easy to read, and aesthetically pleasing (admittedly a subjective matter) layout. If its users are anything like Myspace users, we’d end up with black text on black backgrounds, awful music, and nothing but “OMG PONIES!!” everywhere.

I prefer Facebook because it focuses on the social networking aspect, it doesn’t try to make itself the web equivalent of finger painting.

Outdated code? I call B.S. on that. No one is honest about anything anymore. How about this:

“We had a stupid idea, we tossed it in. We didn’t think we’d get caught. Our bust.”

Online polls have a lot of potential, it may not be a mass appeal product but is of much use to groups.

I started to sign up for Facebook due to the recent hype, but stopped at the point where it insisted on knowing my “real birthdate”.

Sorry, they have no legitimate need to know that information.
