I read a fairly interesting article called Face book is using you the main idea is to inform you on how Facebook gains it's money and popularity. Also to tell how they filed documents to the government to sale shares of stock to the public. The make their money by selling ad space to companies these advertisements get promoted by keywords. Once you trigger a keyword that sort of company gets advertised.
Personally i think this is a cool way to gain profits its simple and quick, the process isn't that complicated, Also i believe facebook isn't using us be cause they provide us with profits by letting us freely use its site for free of charge, we can easily contact those we barely see and those we see everyday with the push of a button. We post our feelings on an electronic diary basically for thats not being used its being refunded.
They provide information about how they gain there money, thats a fact of being honest it would be using us if we had to pay to long in also post a status or so, thats being greedy and Facebook isn't doing that i believe they have to be paid some way and making the people who play games by tokens isnt enough. Everybody wants money and most of us need it but the way you have to get could be so wrong or it could perfectly right i think this way is right but its a way others would disagree with.
Do you worry that you could be judged (by an employer, by a bank, by a college, etc.) based on who your friends are or by what you like or post?
