facebook

I'd add ilxors as friends, especially ones I've met, but that isn't exactly a running concern so far. I'd feel weird linking to here unless it's some sort of commentary thread that could stand on its own, without really acknowledging that this is a site I post on and do not just browse.

this is long overdue but i just finally changed my login ID

not at all saying that
a) i'm anything but a semi-lurker
b) anything i post is of interest to anybody

but i wouldn't feel that good if people were (without my knowledge) discussing on facebook something i said on ilx

i guess others would agree?

how do i promote a party on facebook? do i already have to have a personal facebook page? i've setup an artist page but can't see any way of actually inviting people or adding friends

this thing is bullshit. myspace was so much better for this type of thing

Create an event, invite people to event, profit.

put the details and a link to the event in a status update of your page so it appears on all the fans feed.

make the event public so all the invited people who are attending have it show up on their news feed for their friends to see.

also allow others to invite friends.

much better promotion than you could ever ask for on myspace.

i don't have a personal facebook page so i can't do any of that. i'll just send some text messages or something

or get a page?

join the other 500 million

seems a bit late in the day for getting a facebook page tbh

i've setup an artist page

i didn't know you could do that without a personal page.

i don't see why you can't put in status updates on your artist page for fans to see, if you have an artist page.

DMB is Dave Matthews Band? Are they really that popular amongst American students?

not any more. remember, that was 5 years ago.

i suspect that if the Pulse thing were still going, stuff would be a lot more interesting now? tho with some obvious things like LADY GAGA etc.

I think the life-death cycle for Facebook is finally kicking in (a la Friendster and MySpace)... Already know a half-dozen or so people who've cancelled their FB account. No reason other than they're just bored with it.

people were canceling their FB accounts two/three years ago two. I don't think FB is going the way of Myspace or Friendster any time soon - Friendster was run ridiculously as a business, Myspace didn't really ever get the grown-up-world presence that FB has. The real FB killer is Twitter, and the two have integrated pretty comfortably

imo

I keep ilx and facebook as entirely separate worlds. Like, there are so many facebook.friends who are like, obligatorily involved in my life. If I posted an ilx facebook status update, or commented on someone's ilxor fb status update, I'd be opening the ilxor door to people who I'd much.rather just know as IRL people.

While I kinda understand the above view, I also find some of it a tad amusing, at least in the context of the threads I post on and look at here, and my FB friends. Somehow, I do not think that me putting an ilx Chitlin Circuit Soul posting (that is currently read by 3 people maybe) or a Latin or Global Music one on my FB page is gonna cause me embarrassment or bring 'uncool' FB people here. Actually those ILX threads could use a few more people posting. Maybe the rap goons like having only 5 or 6 people posting on that rolling thread?

3/4 of my friends list consists of ILXors anyway....

I closed my Facebook. I don't often regret it, but then who knows what I could be missing?

from Deicide page...very disturbing seeing the second comment under the first one

so today facebook's "recommended pages" widget recommended:

"The Fall Kimble"
"Ghostface Gorilla Hood"

no info on those pages and I am the first person to "like" them, because I am a sucker.

wtf how did they know?

we need a nu-style ILX group

Good that they finally did that. Seemed like the logical move.

I'm guessing my groups will basically break down into:

Family
Family + friends I actually like
Everyone else

The Social Network II

...: You Are the Unpaid Extra

i don't get the cancer thing. the cancer posts. people don't actually write them themselves, right? so confusing.

shit, why is this on ilm? eh whatevssssssssssssss.

just visited facebook campus, walked thru the door of the lobby, conference room to my left labeled RICKROLL

entire place is like one big land of dead memes

cool place tho, but Pixar is still the gold standard of office environments I have visited

I get no real pleasure out of Facebook until I see a thread like this and then praise be to Zuckerberg.

Oh, I posted to the ILM thread rather than the ILE one. Still a joy though.

OMG please let that be real. You need to post that in the ILE Facebook thread for more attention though.

OK so it turns out it was fake. Ho hum.

lol

I don't know exactly why I'm enjoying this so much, but there may be a German word for it.

is facebook acting really weird today

not for me

goddammit

Some weird censorship going on today

like what

weird this is on ilm?

Oh its this weird thing where a guys blog cant be linked to on facebook without a captcha and other stuff

http://scriptonitedaily.wordpress.com/2013/04/25/facebook-censors-users-during-media-blackout-on-privatisation-of-the-nhs/

probably a thing like nortons does when wordpress gets marked as spam for one blog so the whole thing gets marked but still. Ive never been asked to do a captcha for posting a link before and it seems weird.

I cant access my facebook account with new password to new mobile number as link is not working, also link was not in new email account, when they said it was sent.

Please help

your new password is: GRIMREAPAHBRB
