All regular Facebook users must have noticed by now the “Facebook Platform” feature, where companies can develop there own applications for the millions of unsuspecting college and high school students that frequent the site. Sure, some of the applications are useful - but you occasionally find a text ad that’s helpful as well. Doesn’t mean I want them there. Facebook’s revenue was over $50 million last year… they aren’t being forced to expand their marketing. But they want to make more money, and in doing so, they’re turning the website into just another MySpace, riddled with advertising and slowly creeping into dangerous territory where millions of their users might leave them. Facebook is useful enough as it is. Marc Zuckerberg is rick enough as it is.

Leave it be.
