Changes To Facebook Are Goofey

Are the changes to Facebook all that evident to the social media crowd??

There sure was a lot of buzz on the hot topic of changes to Facebook early this summer.

Does it concern you that along with the changes, spammers have found a way in so Facebook is having to make changes in email notification and other unplanned changes?

Part of the original plan was to decrease the "clutter" on our profiles and I guess it does look a little cleaner. Add-on applications are behind a new tab now.

Apparently, many complaints were coming through to Facebook asking for a change, that it was getting "as bad as MySpace."

Do you agree with that? I sort of like MySpace plus my husband would tell you that I obviously don't mind clutter :)

So, why am I writing this lens? Well, I'm not sure why. One thing I'd probably have to say is that it's a very savvy Internet marketing, social media type of thing to do -- to write about the news in our industry.

So I guess it's two things I want from this lens:

(1) I want to see if I can "use the news" and get your attention because I have some things of interest to say about social media marketing in general and about Facebook specifically.

(2) And I want to know what you think about social media and whether or not you think Facebook goofed?

That's it. Basically, I'd like to do a little social media networking here!
