I Lost Facebook

Or perhaps Facebook has lost me. The thing is they did this last year and we went around and around. I am not going to go through that again. There are plenty of good micros coming up now. I just chose Tumblr and they are pretty good except that they have too much junk in with your posts. They may clean it up.

Came across this item on the Internet: Is Facebook really losing its appeal?

Facebook will be largely abandoned by 2017, say Princeton researchers, after comparing its growth curve to that of an infectious disease. Are you a committed Facebook user or has the social network lost its appeal? The 870 million people using Facebook via their smartphones each month could explain the drop in Google searches – those looking to log on are no longer doing so by typing the word Facebook into Google.

Facebook has spread like an infectious disease but we are slowly becoming immune to its attractions, according to researchers at Princeton. "Ideas, like diseases, have been shown to spread infectiously between people before eventually dying out, and have been successfully described with epidemiological models," claim John Cannarella and Joshua Spechler, from the US university's mechanical and aerospace engineering department.

Their predictions are based on the number of times Facebook is typed into Google as a search term – with searches having peaked in December 2012 but trailing off since. The 870 million users accessing the social network via their mobile phones may explain the dwindling desktop traffic. But Facebook's chief financial officer David Ebersman admitted: "We did see a decrease in daily users, specifically among younger teens."

Pub's Side Note: If you must have readers in Finland, South Africa or Canada, by all means try to stay in their good graces. We are interested in Hawaii, and especially Oahu, we don't need Facebook.
