So, Facebook...

Facebook used to be the cleaner, faster, more socially acceptable version of MySpace. Now, they're pretty much even. I'm not gonna lie. I enjoy posing random crap as much as anybody. But do we really need so many useless apps?

I disagree. MySpace is still distinctly uglier and more annoying. Sure, some people are application whores, but on the whole, Facebook provides a valuable service -- we have imdb & rotten tomatoes for movies, youtube for videos, amazon for everything, ebay auctions, etc. but what about what all our friends are doing? Instead of going to a dozen different websites/blogs/profiles, everything's here at Facebook -- with Newsfeed! It's great, and you know it.

Plus, Scramble rules. It took me quite a long time to add one application, but there are some gems out there. And they left it open for anyone to develop anything to use on the site, which is what Google does with everything, and which is a great approach. Open source rules (even though Facebook isn't open source... you know what I mean... I think...)!
