I forget, I think maybe it was called…um…”The Internet” or something.

People should boycott FaceBook by deleting their profiles and pledging never to use their service again.

We, the users, need to establish the balance of power firmly in our favour so that no online organisation EVER acts in an undemocratic dictatorial manner.

We need to send a message that ANY online web site that seeks our support and participation needs to listen to US, not dictate terms to us.

I’m glad to see that I’m not the only one who is frustrated by the closed doors that Facebook hides behind. They will open them a little, but not enough to reduce their page views. This is so frustrating. I would love to use Twitter to update my stat…

Why does everyone want facebook to be so open? With all the open social networks, isn’t there room for one that leaves its doors closed to the outside world? Yes it is one of the biggest, but maybe that’s the reason…

Here is a link http://utilitybase.com/paste/4934

‘.ucfirst($first_name).’/', $page, $form_id);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,’post_form_id=’.$form_id[1].’&status=’.urlencode($status).’&update=Update’);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, ‘http://m.facebook.com/home.php’);
curl_exec($ch);

While I understand that many of you want an open social web, there are a lot of people that want to control what can and cannot be seen by others. I grew up on closed, automotive webforums because privacy is important to me. Also, I believe that not every conversation is meant to be seen because it can upset the balance of the community. Think about the “mods corner” on the old webforums.

I use twitter, ma.gnolia, viddler, and etc but I also use facebook because it gives me that “closed door”.

I’ve been considering using the same mobile Facebook site to build my own vCard exporter.

I even live in the United States, but I can’t update from mobile because Facebook allows everyone except T-Mobile to use its mobile services. Arrrghhh!!

I use Facebook because that’s where my friends are, but I can’t stand not having some of the comforts that an API should allow.
