Facebook.

What is Facebook???? It is a social networking site that is at the peak of the trend of social media.
Here's a Peter Chao take on Facebook.


Ok. I have been found guilty of Facebook addiction. So what's so awesome about Facebook?

Actually I think, Facebook and the iPhone are VERY similar. Both have apps. Both are meant for communication. And both have millions of users.

I think the awesome thing about Facebook is the apps. Of course the games and the photo albums. We all play the games there and stalk your friends photos and status updates. Well, aren't we all curious.

Last year, the Facebook fever caught up with my mom. So now she has a Facebook profile too. She's 50 and found an old secondary school classmate who actually moved to Utah. How awesome is that! Of course, along the way, I too found loads of long lost friends. But wait, wasn't there something similar too?? Remember Friendster?

Well, Friendster in my opinion, was pretty successful in Asia. But until the American culture caught up with Asia, people turned to Facebook instead. Plus, Friendster's actually pretty boring, if you ask me.

So, these are my thoughts about the awesome-ness about Facebook.
