You know all of those applications that everyone adds and then, as if them adding them wasn't bad enough, but they send you 320,984,302 invitations to do the same? We've all been there. We've all unfriended someone due to their compulsion to continue to send invitations that you care nothing about. (Don't lie. You know you've done it.)
Well I've got a daunting number for you. Aside from the Zombie application, Funwall! (as if the other wall is boring?) and MyStarbucks, did you know that there are 29,681 other applications that can be added to your Facebook page? Made you throw up a little bit in your mouth, didn't it?
I think there should be an application that allows you to view the people that have the most applications. I almost want to add as many as I can just to see how many facebook will allow me to have.

Thank God that I don't have an account on either MySpace or FaceBook. I came to the realization a LONG time ago (yeah, yeah...the late nineties) that social networking -- probably more along the lines of plain old online socializing -- just ain't all it's cracked up to be. Sure, it's nice getting updates and keeping in touch with people that you already know and see. But seeing is key. If you replace facetime with FaceBook, then you truly are wasting your life and missing out on the special connections and benefits that real-life, in-person relationships provide.
In fact, I would venture a guess that a great deal of the depression and perhaps anxiety that people suffer these day might actually have its roots in the dank artificiality of the virtual world. Think about this: how many times have you spent an entire evening, or maybe even an entire day, sitting by yourself in a darkened room typing away in a chat with someone, updating your social networking web page, or writing an email? Were you satisfied afterwards? or did it feel like a complete waste of time? If the latter, then how could you ever feel good or proud of it? Meaningless labors always lead to dejection.
