Has Facebook fallen out of fashion?
January 4th, 2008 by Wendy McAuliffe
It was only a few months ago that the number of ‘friends’ you had on Facebook determined how cool and popular you were…but has this social phenomenon already been dethroned?
A Tweet Scan today reveals emerging irritation with Facebook’s heavy handed approach to rule-breaking users. There seems to have been a flurry of disgruntled users either deleting their accounts, or actively trying to get banned. Click here to see the chain of conversation on the subject.
Earlier today reports surfaced that respected blogger Rober Scoble had been kicked-off Facebook, for running an automated script. According to his blog post, all traces of him have since been removed from the social networking site.
Funnily enough, this seems to have sparked a mini-craze.
One Tweet reads: “Funny… people want Scoble’s script so that they can be deleted from Facebook. Classic.”
It just goes to show how fluid social media audiences are!
