[BNM] Brighton New Media facebook group was: RE: SocialTonight!!

Fri Jun 1 10:37:34 BST 2007

I rather like Facebook.  It's my new internet crack until the next hit
comes along :)

I use it for keeping up with people in one handy place, organising
personal and work events, and being nosey.

I tried to use myspazz once when trying to work out "why God, why?" but
I have to say gave up within 5 minutes as it had the worst interface I
think I've ever had the displeasure to use.  Facebook on the other hand,
clean easy, and you can add all sorts of widgets which appeals to me
geekier side.
