Facebook always reminds me of a modern version of Compulink CIX - which spent a lot of its time keeping the rest of the Internet out of its internal bulletin board back in the early days of Internet access.
Facebook posts not showing up on the search engines and hidden behind a sign up "pay with your privacy"-wall are very equivalent.
CIX forums still exist, but they are nowhere near as influential as they once were. Perhaps Facebook will go the same way.
- microtherion 6y ago> Facebook posts not showing up on the search engines I'm conflicted about this one. Personally, I wish that Pinterest content would not show up in search engine results; I've yet to see one that was useful in any way to me. I could imagine that FB results would be similarly clogging up search results with little value.
