Keep in mind 99% of people who go on CNBC or make stupid reports or recommendations have no vested interest in the implied outcome. None whatsoever. They are selling books or selling newsletters or selling videos or selling infrastructure

I thought it was a reference to Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters (for some reason, it was deemed a good idea to have 9th grade students read the Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test)

Is there a bug-me-not for facebook? Like a pool of anonymous accounts that people can use?

by veyron 15y ago
Can you post a list of the other domains facebook uses?

I actually did an empirical test with AIM (rigging a version of gaim -- now I think it's called pidgin -- to generate those statistics)

by veyron 15y ago
That's exactly what people say about AIM and gchat :P I'd recommend, over the next week, that you check how much time was spent with facebook (even if its passive, you may be checking into the screen every half hour) I'm not trying to be n

Facebook is an integral part of my life, and I spend every waking moment on it

I spend maybe a few hours a year, just to check in on my birthday or christmas or exceptional days

I never had facebook, I don't have facebook, or I haven't checked in over a year ...

Next time. I would say it counts toward the last option, but I definitely will explicitly add it for the next poll

The dreaded Facebook firewalls. I can recall 5 startups I couldn't even see because the first thing they ask is for you to log into Facebook. Its a nonstarter.

Expand on this more. How does this differ from privacy mode (at this point most browsers have a "InPrivate" browsing or "Incognito" or "Private" mode

Does it increase or decrease as a function of relationship status? Maybe there is some sort of correlation with number of partners ...

To everyone who thinks he or she spends five minutes a day or some other short burst of time per day: please time yourself. Please! I insist because, as I mentioned a few times in a few replies, I found that people who say they spend 5 min

I thought about it, but I think anyone who says they spend "five minutes a day" in reality spend much more time. Years ago I thought I spent 5 minutes a day on aim until I really started clocking myself (old school way, with a stopwatch). T

Given the number of people who don't have or don't use Facebook, I think there are a lot of people who don't derive social value from social networking.

I'd hope the fact that it's a poll would draw people not interested in Facebook :)

by veyron 15y ago
That's really a slippery slope. I'd highly recommend timing yourself and confirming it's only a few minutes a day.
657.
by veyron 15y ago
I thought about it, but I found that most people who say that actually spend more time than they think. Its like instant messaging insofar as it's easy to think you spend a few minutes but in reality you are spending hours. I'd recommend y

carveout is a real word. In contract law and in financial regulations, it refers to a specific exception to a general rule. I have seen many organizational bodies, like the IFRS, use carveout as a word rather than carve-out. Unfortunately

Do your classmates see facebook as a replacement for a social life or an addition to the social lfie?

Is that documented somewhere? I was completely unaware of that "feature" of the Nexus One (granted I use an iPhone anyway)
