I had a dream. No seriously I did, it was about Facebook. It was Tuesday night or morning (no idea what time). I woke up and was coherent, but dreaming at the same time. Those kind are so real!
Anyways, from what I remember I was posting all sorts of photos and links and comments and clicking the “like” button on every status as if I’m going to get 5 gold stars and a raise because my superior Facebook skills got my client 72,000 Facebook friends.
I cant figure out if I’m just stressing at work or if this dream is a sign from above that I need to tell the world an important message or we are all going to die. By the way, did you read the article about what would happen if the internet broke? I really think people would die – just think about all of the ways people could die without the internet. There are so many different scenarios. For example, A person insults another through an IM (instant message), and before getting the chance to say “J/K, J/K LYLAS!!! I’m totes Joking!” the Internet breaks. The insulted is now dead as a result of suicide. I would bet you 72,000 facebook friends that would happen.
So if I’m going to dream about Facebook there are some things that need to change. And even though no one really give a hoot about what I say, I am going to tell you what I would change personally to make Facebook a bit more “dream friendly” in 2010 anyway.
Status Updates: I really do not care about what people did/said/felt yesterday. If I wanted to know what they did yesterday I would go to their profile and find out. That’s when I’m creeping – Hey…we all do it! So Facebook, what I really want for Christmas is “real time” status updates.
Advertisments: You cannot tell me that because I changed my relationship status to “Married” that those are the only ads that you can find to show me. No! I do not want a baby & no thanks, my teeth are perfectly fine. I have so much detailed info on my profile. Show me the goods.
Automatic Updates: You must be able to automatically update & feed into every platform (Twitter, Flickr, Pandora) I use & vise versa(detect everything I do on those sites and upload to Facebook). You have almost 300 million users, I think you can handle that. I can’t be the only one that could dream of this. Make it happen!
TV: Could you be on TV? If I could program you to show me updates on the bottom of my TV screen like those ads on YouTube you would be my favorite celebrity. I could update my status from there, post cool stuff I just saw on TV and watch the news at the same time. Twitter would have to be like this too! I wouldn’t have to sit in front of a computer screen any longer than I have to.
I think this is all for now. As I think of others I will let you know.
P.S. If you search “Facebook” in Google Images there are some really strange images.
