FACEBOOK IS DEAD

[cookmac]

I only use facebook to lurk like a creeper, and see if there is any cute friends within mutal friends to fuk.

Facebook is far from being dead. Sorry :p

[cookmac]

The only reason (or at least the main reason) why facebook is retaining people is that because most likely their friends are using it and it is a convenient way to know what they are up two and to communicate with them, and this is the sole reason why I'm still using it tbh, I just check it from time to time that's all for me

Yeah, I think this is about 90% are at.

Outside using it to hook up (:

yeah, the thing is, once you have so many people locked into your ecosystem, people will become less likely to give up your service. i don't know what it's called, but a lot of sites let you log into your account via your facebook info.. because facebook accounts are almost as ubiquitous as e-mail accounts.

exactly and websites allowing you to log with your facebook credentiels goes both ways, because FB made it that way and want to make people more dependant on their system and those websites want the informations from your facebook account, which can be a tresor for some companies and I'm sure the facebook is the biggest gift to the NSA could ever dream of

Yeah, I would really like to delete my Facebook account. (I only use Twitter now ) but over the years it's accumulated some good pictures and such so I really don't want to :/

You can deactivate your account in there settings. But not sure about completely deleting it.

You`ll eventually come back since it owns instragram, and almost everything now lol.

The dilemma I have is the fact that I have so many years of pictures and video saved up that it seems like it would hurt deactivating the account

Facebook is a decent political aggregate. It's also how I found out about bitcoin. I use it almost entirely for vacation pictures, kids pictures, and as my political soapbox. I consider it a personal victory when conservative friends share posts from libertarian pages. There are many instances where it was very likely they only found that page because of my posts.

I only use facebook so my lost friends can find me. I do not have any photos on there, just my simple profile. There was a time I had it installed on my phone and I can keep up with some of my friends' updates. Ever since they start putting ads in between the posts, I uninstalled it.

I do think facebook has reached a plateau and it is extremely difficult for it to hit another peak in the future, but it does have a massive global fan base which is impossible to ignore. It is may not be growing, but not dead, or dying.

yep, that's apparently what you do when you have so much cash laying around.. just buy other guys and continue to get bigger and bigger. google and apple do the same.

Just for the record this topic was started by a bot.

While it was an interesting topic to reply to we shouldn't add to these bots threads.

How do you know that it have been started by a bot?

Does anything think that google+ will take over in the future?

Not only facebook the whole social networking concept might face a decline in user adoption..! Its more like You use it and you get enough of it within a year or so.. and start avoiding it same case with FB , watsapp , twitter, etc...!

Hardly.  There are so many people addicted to social media its disgusting!  I have facebook and I keep certain people on there just for a good laugh.  They facebook everywhere they are, take pics of their foods, etc. 

I see more and more young people glued to their phones while at the pub instead of socializing with those around them.  Sadly social media is here to stay I'm afraid.

The fact facebook is trading for roughly $60 bucks proves its far from dead.

yeah, i think it's BS. social networking will continue to grow because we live in a society where everyone wants to be famous for the sake of being famous.. if facebook does start facing attrition, another guy will pop up and the game will be more level... that, or facebook will buy them out, kind of like instagram.

Actually, Facebook is quite alive. "Facebook is dead" has been said a thousand times before it's IPO. I'm actually fairly certain facebook is not dead.

Hell, it's funny, cause facebook is worth more than all of bitcoin currently. Does this mean bitcoin is dead?

[AnimeBoy_007]

Yes, it's getting boring. But, I still use facebook to chat with my friends. Also i use it to share meme.

[Nathonas]

Facebook is growing in users every year so I don't know how you can say it's dead. I'm also pretty sure it is growing in profits, too.
