Get Over It!

If it's escaped your attention facebook has had a major update (which raises the question where have you been, and how have you found yourself here), and apparently some people don't seem to like it, you know if it's you. My question is what's wrong with it? Seriously, the biggest parts of the update are essentially just a small facelift, and the lists is genius (a google+ fueled genius idea nevertheless, but frankly i don't care). Most people i know who complain (a relatively large number), are complaining, seemingly, just for the sake of complaining.

One good thing about this new found hatred for facebook, is hopefully google+ will finally get inhabited, turning the wasteland of my google+ homepage into a thriving bustling metropolis. Although by the looks of things so far either all those people who have threatened to move to google+ haven't or they're using google's circles to stop anything getting through to me, and frankly that's just mean.

I know that before i was singing the praises of google and its plans for its worldwide empire, and yes, google+ is a brilliant piece of internet but please stop using facebook's update as an excuse for using it, please just sign up to it and use it for the sake of using it. Why not, i know this is pretty radical, use both facebook and google+ ? Because frankly, at the moment not much is happening on google+ and it'll probably be many many years before it gets as busy as facebook, and then you know what all the things you didn't like about facebook will be on google+, and you can move onto a new social network site or socialize in the real world.

Sorry about that rant but people sometimes (actually normally) get on my nerve, so back to the positives. If you have google chrome (which using bloggers nifty stats feature, i can safely assume that about 45% of you do, and on a similar note which 15% have been using internet explorer, please get a better browser) then you might realise that being awesome google give you the options of adding some pretty awesome extensions for facebook. Currently i only have the dislike button, and the online counter which rather impressively is currently at 2:27:42 and counting (so much for real life socializing).

Anyway time to wrap it up for today. So i'll again leave you with a quite famous quote this time actually: "Change for change sake is pointless" (or something along those lines ( i really can't be bothered finding the actually quote)), however you can't do anything about it, so just get over it.
