I’ve never really been into the whole Myspace, Facebook and Friendster thing. I recall spending no more than an hour at its peak. I have accounts for Myspace, Facebook, Blogger and Flickr but I wasn’t really into all of that until iPhone and Facebook released the Facebook app. It’s just too easy to use. The regular Facebook interface (both old and new), no matter how well it’s designed, it just cannot win my attention with the plague of clutter. Myspace has an iPhone app too but it’s so slow and I still don’t care to follow status updates. Facebook seems closer to sophistication.
I admit to maintaining my Myspace, Facebook and Flickr by posting photos but never with any status updates, following up on the bulletin board and reading blogs. But with Facebook, because of the habit-enabling iPhone, I actually read status updates. So hey. I read your status updates. Sometimes they’re funny. Sometimes they’re lame. But I read them.
