I’ve got to that point again: I’m bored of social networking. This has happened once before, with MySpace to be precise. This time it’s Facebook.
After building up a list of contacts which include friends past and present, I’m finding fewer and fewer genuine reasons to log in. Occasionally I’ll go in to look at photographs that contacts have uploaded. But more often than not, I’m struggling to find any genuine reason to use the site.
I think this might be a common problem with social network type sites: the initial contact building phase is indeed good fun, but it doesn’t last forever. And what you are left with is a site that has little attraction apart from the odd quirky application: (fluff)Friends anyone?
