In Lieu of Flowers, Please Send Pokes
Party’s over, kids. The lights are up; the DJ’s playing “Closing Time”; you’re going home alone again.
With word circulating that Facebook is expanding to the great unwashed, Mark Zuckerberg greets users today with yet another open letter. “Honestly, it shouldn’t change much for you,” he pleads. (Do you think Mark lies awake at night in his Silicon Valley bachelor pad, composing these in his head? Or does he just play a lot of HALO?)
Maybe it will, maybe it won’t; the point is that Facebook as we know it is dead or dying. We’ve no doubt that the corporation will actually get bigger and more profitable by expanding — but it’ll feel like a different site. The first (only?) generation of users is already souring, and we, for one, will be humming “Send in the Clowns” as our personal use of the place eventually wanes to zero.
Goodbye, sweet Facebook. You were too beautiful for this world.
