Friend I:
To begin with she has over 500 photos of herself that either she put up or was tagged in along with over 115 albums has been tagged according to where, when and for the most part who is in the photos. Her profile picture is just a general profile picture. Also she has over 800 friends none being celebrities or people that are in the limelight one way or the other. Passed the multitude of friends and photos though she isn't very active with updates or posts. She doesn't belong too many groups or fan pages although the ones she is in are school related. It would seem that she uses the amount of friends and photos as a form of communicating with people if she has to.
Friend II
Is very very into updating his "wall" when it comes to posting links to videos/articles that he finds online that usually are more intellectually based (science daily, ted talks, ect). He also has a fair amount of posts about either his art or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu whether its fan pages, video posts, status updates, and photos. When he does status updates that don't have a link they are usually witty in nature. His profile picture is of Hank Hill from King of the Hill and has had other pictures of other animated characters. This friend of mine uses his facebook as a blog to share little morsels of wisdom he finds on the internet to showcase his interests.
Friend III
Seems to just have a facebook to have it. Isn't active really at all on it, has only 20 friends and 5 pictures of himself. His profile is pretty barren which can make me wonder if he is very selective when it comes to using it or whether he has an account to have a sense of belonging by just having one.

I can relate to your friend number III. I know I originally got facebook just to keep up with my friends, many of them only communicate through facebook, heaven forbid the internet goes down for a day....
ReplyDeleteI feel like there are quite a few of your facebook friend #3. People getting drug into facebook just because it is a popular and "in". They honestly don't give a crap and got one just to appease someone.
