i dont think i find anything about facebook boring as of yet.  i just love how i can keep up with all my family and friends around the world :D

Answer 6

Facebook has been extremely popular for years, BUT has onlybeen in the media for the pasy year or so.

When facebook was created it was purely a network sites for students to use (when I joined) and you had to have a student email to register. Then they set the parameteres to companys.

NNow any tim d**k and harry and ficticious characters can join.

Which is annnnoying!!

I have both myspace (never use since joining facebook) and have to say i much prefer facebook. There are too many ppl jus wanting numbers on MySpace and theres not as much to do.

AND I AM ALSO NOT A PLASTIC!!! I USE IT PURELY TO STAY IN CONTACT WITH MY FRIENDS! Thank you =P

Also they jus celebrated having 100 million users...

Answer 7

I am not on it, but only because I have no life to actually put on there. I don't do Myspace, face party or anything like that. Loads of people I used to know are on it apparently, and they tell me to sign up

Answer 8

I have a Facebook, and i'm definately not a plastic!

I also have a MySpace which I definately prefer!

The only reason I have a Facebook is because alot of my family have one, so I use it to keep in touch with them! It helps because some live in Australia, and some in Scotland, and America.

I some ways its easier to use than MySpace!

It's just a phase though. Everyone has one now, but they will find something new to go on soon. I remember when everyone I knew had a Piczo. No one has them anymore!

=D

Answer 9

I did have a face book page but just recently removed it.

In my opinion its a mix between a popularity contest and a legalized form of stalking.

You get people you went to school with that you were not friends with wanting to be your friend.

People seem to just read peoples conversation with people they are not friends with and look at strangers photos it's just wrong.

It was good to keep in contact with people but so is email.

In summary it's a bunch of BS.

Answer 10

I wouldn't say it's popular "all of a sudden."

It's been around for a few years now.

I heard 70 Million people are on Facebook.

People use it because it helps them stay in contact with friends.  

Answer 11

I find it all plastic the people i know use it to chat, just a fad and a boring one at that.
