Overheard in the lunchroom

Today I heard my colleagues talking about the Facebook phenomenon. One of them didn't want to "end up with his photo on anyone's Facebook". I understand him, I wouldn't like it either, although I'm - voluntary - up with a profile picture (talk about double morals, huh?). Anyways, I think the community is straight up bullshit. Back around the millenium shift, we had a popular - Swedish - online community called Lunarstorm. It's still there, yet not as trendy as it was back then. Anyways, I can't see one single thing that's greater with Facebook than good old Lunarstorm. It's like the Americans is making the "Lunarstorm thing" trendy around ten years later, not only that they do it - they do it with success(!). Madness, if you ask me.

MySpace is alot the same, despite the fact that the original concept with MySpace was to market new artists. So, I can't really judge them alike. Anyways, thumbs up for the good old Lunarstorm community, now even having released their site from just about every "premium account only -services". So, if(!) you really want to stay absent from the real world, chose Lunarstorm - so we can strike Facie of the map! Gettin' so sick about hearing about it over the radio, real life, everywhere..




Btw, those subcontractors has installed my new broadband plug into my flat. However, a paper note made it clear that it will not be in service until they've done the whole block. Gah, like I care! ;P
