    On second thought, maybe a parody of Facebook wasn't the best idea to float around a place more or less dominated by Facebook users. I can see that now.

    p good

    I don't mind that facebook tries to guess what I like through an algorithm. I wish the TV would do the same. Fuck cable, I'll use netflix to choose what I want to watch.

    I don't really mind that my interests are compiled by large corporations in aggregate with a billion + other people. *shrug* I still have my deep dark dirty little secrets. It's a worthy trade-off to communicate with my friends and keep up with people I wouldn't otherwise (who I'm actually interested in).

    that too

    Seriously, it's like hearing there's an Aerosmith concert.

    Some of maddox's newer stuff is funny, but I don't know about that one... how does the ending have anything to do with the contents of the video?

    It's saying that Facebook is making dumb choices.

    I have never once used a "you might like this if you liked that" suggestion in the history of everything, and I LOVE the webbernets. It's just that computers are idiots and algorithms suck at predicting the wild uncaged human heart animal that beats within our soul brains.

    Facebook is making dumb choices how? I don't quite get it. Of course though, I don't have a facebook account.


    As for 'you might like this' stuff, I have sometimes clicked on the videos Youtube suggests after you finish a video...
