Finally made it to the Seattle Web Community Forum. Walked in on a very heated discussion about all the things that are NOT good about Facebook. Some of the questions being posed/debated centered around the scariness of Beacon, lack of functionality related to “email”, overall privacy issues, why students post so many personal details, all the useless/useful applications, the youth of Mark Zuckerberg and how many of the recent stumbles show the inexperience of management at Facebook. There is a very large debate about what role the community that helped build Facebook into the success it is and should have as it relates to driving direction (i.e their potential for monetization) of the company. By the way the title of the session is: Facebook Curmudegeons!
More from the session later this evening and tomorrow.
