Facebook Groups
October 25th, 2007Back in gringolândia, I guess I’ll start speaking gringuês again. Man, I miss Brazil.
Tonight I went to Starbucks, where I was reading a book. I had a few conversations. But it’s sort of weird trying to start conversations with random people. Especially if they’re all face down in their laptops (and lattes).
Thing is, though, other people have to be thinking the same thing–”Why am I so damn popular on Facebook but have no one to talk to at Starbucks??”
Or something.
You know how Facebook groups mostly suck? They’re just like Orkut groups. Or Friendster groups. People go there to be identified, and then they’re like… uh, what now? Because being off-topic seems pretty retarded in a group that’s defined by having a ridiculously specific topic.
It makes a lot more sense to “be identified” with reference to a place that’s… you know… social.
What I’m getting at is, when I got home, I wished there was a Facebook group (or something) for that one particular Starbucks.
(Okay, mainly so I could have the huevos to message up that one girl with the German accent.)
Does anyone know what I’m trying to say? Why doesn’t every place in the world have a place online, that everyone knows about?
Our reply may be not 100% related with the original post but since we see Facebook is mentioned inside page, we would like to request your support to our petition against irrational Facebook Disabled Accounts policy. We try and inform people relating to this enormous problem that few of the people inside social media society really know. Our effort is focused to media attention online and offline therefore far we’re at good tracks.
