What is Facebook.com? What Does Facebook.com Have To Offer?

October 26, 2007

Pros and Cons

Facebook.com is a great way to meet friends and keep up on what they are doing. Once you add a friend to your Facebook.com friends list you will always know when they are adding to their notes (blog) or updating their profile. Join Facebook.com groups to meet people like you or browse the profiles to find other new friends. Facebook.com’s classmates and co-worker search is good for finding friends too.

Pros

  • Keep Track Of Friends: Facebook.com tells you when your friends are updating their profile’s, adding to their blogs or have some other news on their Web site.
  • Photo Album: Add photos and photo albums to your Facebook.com profile.
  • Blog Merge: Use the notes feature to create your own simple blog or you can merge your existing blog right into Facebook.com notes.
  • Excellent Search and Browse: Search and browse for people on Facebook.com using just about anything.

Cons

  • No Music: You can not add music to your Facebook.com profile.
  • No Video: You also can not add video to your Facebook.com profile.
  • No Chatroom: I really would have thought that a site like Facebook.com would have a chatroom or general forum so people can get together online and just chat and say “hi”.

They don’t. There was no chatroom or IM to be found on Facebook.com.
