How about having fairly accurate data on a shit ton of people including exactly what they like and don't like? I'm going to have to make sure I'm logged out of FB when I'm browsing the web pretty soon.
"Dullspace (not my real name) likes 'Venus2000'!"

what a retarded fucking thread
Is it just me, or is the Facebook dashboard(s) the least user-friendly piece(s) of shit ever? It's ugly and makes no sense and I can't tell who's doing or saying what and to who and half the fucking updates I see are friends of friends who I don't know and don't give a shit about.
I used to log into MySpace 3 times a day or more and I log into Facebook maybe once every few weeks out of complete boredom. Once MySpace went real corporate, everyone bounced. The same exact thing will happen with Facebook. Most of these stupid ass Web 2.0 sites and services are like sub-prime mortgages. They are too flawed from the beginning to ever be worth much, but they change hands based on every buyer knowing they can profit by selling them to the next sucker until eventually the bag holder pays the price when the hot potato explodes.
Facebook will die as soon as soon as it tries to bank like the multi-billion dollar company everything thinks it's worth. As soon as ads are prominent enough to get more than a .01% average click rate, eveyone will leave for the next "beta" ad-less social network with a fresh feature set. MySpace is more useful than ever now, but unless you're trying to fuck a hoodrat, there's no one worthwhile left. Facebook will have the same exact fate and we'll all be on ShitInMyMouthSpaceBook.com in 2 years poking each others assholes for no reason and asking our friends for shipments of slaves for our virtual sweatshops.
"Apps" are even more fucking retarded. I read a story about great young entrepreneurs and they almost all have the same story: I created an appwidget called Shwitter that uses my iphone camera to check the color of my shit and then keeps an updated pie chart of the colors of all the shits I take and automatically updates my friends on my health...AND it integrates with Google maps so my friends can find and shit in all the same public toilets I've shitted in... and I got $35 mil in funding in 3 rounds from 5 different investment groups who think we can sell this thing for 100 mil in 2 years when we have 1 million users and are still in beta with no fucking clue how we'll monetize.
Goddamn. I wish I was more simple minded so I could actually pursue something like this without breaking out in laughter when I worked on my elevator pitch. When I see some of the shit that gets funding, I sometimes wonder if people are giving blow jobs as elevator pitches these days.
