    <div class="quote_poster">Chutney Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Does anybody else think that opening Facebook up to the public and high school kids was a huge mistake?</div>

    I left MySpace for Facebook, and I`m only a sophmore in HS. I`m starting to see more and more of the same A-Holes I left on MySpace show up on Facebook. [​IMG]

    If I were a college student, I think I would be upset too if I saw little freshman making a Facebook and plaguing it like they did with MySpace.

    I think he was talking of his misspelling of "y'all" (the apostrophe signals the absence of letters), mate.

    As for the Face book for high school kids, that's just whiny kids in college, most of the high schoolers on FB are only a few years younger than the college kids. You don't see alum/grad students crying about it (well I have not), so I say get over it.

    But, for the record, I never have or will have a MySpace.

    That'll change when you graduate college and start looking for a job. Employers check up on applicants' myspace profiles all the time.

    Facebook is getting worse gradually.

    These applications are so damn stupid.

    Well people make their profiles private now. How would an employer be able to do anything in that case?

    I don't use myspace/facebook though.

    Neither do I actually. I don't see the point in blogging about private matters or other crap that goes on there. I suppose I'm just a more private person.

    Yeah man, that sh*t is so retarded. They like way over did it. I mean some stuff are decent and acceptable, like the audio/video feature and graffiti, but most is overboard. Many like(d) facebook for it simplicity but then they added all these apps.

    The only way I would have a page at MySpace is when I have my music recorded. That's what everyone does these days anyway it seems.

    To me, its more like somthing to share with your friends, with photos and what not, like a photo album, but alot more interactive.

    I have my profile on private, and only accept requests from my close friends, or people I know off the internet, like you guys on here.

    I dont really use the blog feature (I was talked into writing one once by my friend, lol), as I much prefer to talk to people, and interact with them, rather than just writing up a piece and instructing people to just read that.

    yeah look me up with jaharikavi1@yahoo.com .............. facebook is cool though, it's good to meet people of the same age group as you with similar interests and it also does a good job of keeping porn out, unlike myspace in which I have to delete 5 friend requests a day

    I don't use Myspace, but I like using Facebook. It's relatively simple (although there's way too many new applications now), and you keep in touch with old friends as well.
