OT. I am probably an old fart, but I just can't see the use of facebook. Yeah, I have a bunch of "friends" there, but whenever I get there to confirm yet another "friend" or erase yet another stupid message about Mafia Wars, I go to the "home page" and see a list of messages "friends" wrote in twitter-talk that are totally boring and not worth reading. I read blogs of people I know and they are often interesting and exciting, but I never see that on Facebook. For me Facebook is a cesspool of crap. Facebook IM is also so much worse than regular IM clients. Maybe it's different on phones, but on PC Facebook IM is grossly worse than any other IM. And overall Facebook homepage UI is just horrid. I've seen Facebook update stream reformatted much nicer by some friends in business. I still wouldn't use it, but at least it was much better looking than the craptastic update view on fb website.
