Agree with your sentiment. But what we really need is a substitute for facebook. Until that comes, folks who want to socialize will continue to use facebook.

  There are already several alternatives to facebook. For example Google's orkut.com Seems to be popular in India. All the developers I work with there use it rather than fb.

    The college students are steadily shifting towards facebook. Orkut was popular, but now the latest social networking media is Facebook.

    Does anyone else see the irony in proposing any Google service as a remedy to privacy issues? Remember Buzz.

      Hmm, at least they fixed it and apologized. Orkut privacy settings fit in one tab. There are seven settings of which five have just two options. All in simple English. I don't need to read a blog article to understand them. What is your excuse, facebook?
