Hey Dave just come across this post two years after you originally wrote it;-)) What a lot of comment you seem to have incited at the time!!!! As for me (and my business colleagues in the UK) facebook is a serious business. Not because it necessarily brings in paying customers, but because it helps us to strengthen the relationships we have with our peers on the face to face networking circuit - which is pretty much what most social networks do (on or offline). Thanks for this rather long post - it was just what I was looking for and personally, I don’t have a problem with the length if the information helps. LPH

i agree with #78. Let’s face it, anything “social” will end up being invaded by “commercial” interests. That’s the way the world has worked since we quit just hunting & gathering. I just want to know the best way to use fb to help people find my business.

It’s not too late yet for you to graph social patterns……

Speaking of the social networking phenomena and the various voices that are echoing these thoughts, it’s interesting that the next couple of days will see the first Graphing Social Patterns’ conference in San Jose, hosted by my good friend …

@ Hugh: *golf clap* Beautifully articulated. And so true.
@ LilaTov and Bill: I don’t think any amount of Facebooking would get those boys laid.

I found this article to be a good introduction for businesses who are running late for the Facebook boat and still think it’s ‘just a social thing’, so thanks

PS While I’m no fan of facial hair for practical reasons (faceburn!) I think the stubble looks good on you, Dave. They’re just jealous cos they can’t grow any yet.

The next step will be using the Facebook platform in real world (non-internet) applications, which our startup is working to create. You will be surprised to see how it works.

I’m with Agnes in comment #68 and mark in #83
There is something truly fascinating about Facebook and the FB phenomenon. Even its shortcomings are telling when you think in terms of what human beings crave in online social interaction, what kinds of social lubrication make it easier for people to make or stay in contact with one another.

I have no idea if it can really be turned into a tool for commerce, but one thing’s clear: Facebook is evolving rapidly, and has already extended far beyond the initial high school application.

And I can’t think of a bigger waste of time than posting comments that say, “just looking at this article made me vomit in my mouth a little bit,” or “Sink your teeth into my juicy turd.” Your time would definitely be better spent if you were wasting it on Facebook, practicing your social skills perhaps.
