Facebook sucks.... but Digg Rules.

I've always considered myself big social networker. I use email more than i pick up the phone, i use text messaging, I post on dozens of forums, i use instant messaging, Trillian is a godly program. But Facebook? who's insane idea was this? Its like a virus. I signed up for this thing because i heard so much about it. Everyone and their... cat. Has a facebook page. At first i didn't see the point. I added my sister, and my fiance. I found it mildly amusing.... And then it started growing. I was under attack. You remember that giant screen with all the little nuclear strikes on it from that movie War Games back in the 80's? thats what it felt like, my sister's freinds friend of a friend has added you as a friend!

you've been invited to play pimp warz?!
you've been given a sticker!
your mother is has gotten a kiss from random dude_04!

it never ends, my mailbox just fills with this crap.

And peer pressure makes it even worse. I have a lot of female cousins. Am i willing to get the nasty talk back and phone calls if i deny them as a friend, or delete them from my list...

I understand that i could probably filter most of the crap out with the proper settings, but do i really want to go through that much hassle? I shouldn't have to filter out that your cat has a new outfit Jenny... nobody else cares either... stop posting about it!

The rant is not supposed to be until tomorrow, so I'll move on to digg Digg Rocks. Power to the people to choose their content. I'm a little late to jump on the digg band wagon, but get me a hat and I'll yeeehaw with the rest of them.

So Yeah.. dig rocks.
