Can Facebook ruin a friendship/relationships?

"i dont know if facebook ruins relationships necessarily, but i do think it puts unneccesary stress/strain on them. think about guys and/or girls that dont want to list the name of thier bf/gf and just keep it as “in a relationship”. if the bf doesnt want to, the gf will wonder why he doesnt want to. or the “its complicated” feature which i think it retarded. how is listing and letting everyone on fb see that “its complicated” going to help your situation AT ALL? As for friendships, yes i think fb can ruin friendships. i have been in/witnessed situations where ppl have logged onto my account changed information or requested ppl that you didnt want requested etc. also if you were supposed to hang out with your friend one night and they bail and htey are dumb enough to post pics of themselves out that night with other ppl-that all is friendship ruining potential im sure weve all been there done that!"

I found this on a blog site. I think that it does put strain and cause drama but doesn't ruin someones friendship. It's their actions that ruin it not the website.

Facebook is better than Myspace

http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/2479902/top_5_reasons_facebook_is_better_than.html?cat=9


That is a link to an article about why Facebook is better than Myspace. I personally agree with it and am considering writing my augmentative paper on it. I think it can be controversial because it is just based off of opinions like that Facebooks layout is cleaner. There really isn't too much of a difference between the two. I find it interesting because I really do wonder which one is better. In the sense of which is faster and more reliable. I want to know people started using Facebook more than Myspace and why Myspace is considered so "middle school"

Facebook ads

Free Baby Day Bag
Get absolutely free day bag, diapers, formula & baby bottle cooler. Email required. Limited one offer per household. Act now!


I am not completely sure why this ad came up on my Facebook. Considering I don't have a kid or plan to anytime soon it doesn't really make much sense. Maybe it's because teen pregnancy is higher now they are advertising things for kids on younger peoples Facebooks. 




Polished Nail Bar


It's the nail salon down the street from queens. Most likely, they advertise to girls who live in the Charlotte area. Most guys, I assume don't really want to get their nails done so that would be wasting money in advertising. Being a teenage girl, I am probably one of their top people to target but girls love to get their nails done.


College living at UNCC

The ad has a picture of a girl smiling and looking happy. They are advertising for students to live on the UNCC campus. Since my Facebook says I live in Charlotte, the obviously are going to target me since I am the age of a college student and already live here so it would be easy for me to go there.

zzzzzz...

Right now, I am avoiding my nap. On mondays and wednesdays I have a four hour break between classes were I usually sleep for three of those four hours. But, this makes me not be able to fall asleep at night which is extremely frustrating. I'm trying to keep myself occupied but my bed looks so comfy and inviting.

My near death experience..

So far the most interesting thing that has happened to me this week was when my roommate almost killed me. We were on the way back from Harris Teeter and Anna was getting a little anxious waiting in all the traffic. So, she decided to pull out into the middle of the intersection and make a sharp left as soon as a car was coming. It literally missed hitting my side by about 3 inches..it's safe to say I will be doing the driving from now on.
