Miscellanous aBOUT FACEBOOK

YUHU. Lagi ketagihan facebook (fb) ney ceritanyaa.. so i thought about post something about facebook. Yeah something miscellanous.

First, i found that the establisher of facebook, Mark Zuckerberg faced the problem that he was claimed by ConnectU as much as USD 65 billions! waaah..
But it seemed resulting no problem, wasn't it? lha wong yang demam facebook makin hari makin buanyakk..
Ngomong2 tentang orang2 yang demam fb, ada fakta lumayan mencengangkan tentang para fb's user. Katanya ney, lebih dari 50 % pengguna fb itu berasal dari indonesia!! ckckckck... orang indonesia emang gampang sekali kena 'virus' ini itu. Satu kena, yang lain dapat dipastikan ikutan kena dengan sangat cepat. Yaaa...tak dapat dipungkiri, salah satu dari 'yang terkena virus fb' itu adalah aku. Ho-oh, aku juga jadi ketagihan... duh...abis2in duit ma waktu aja sebenernya .. Tapi yang bikin aku suka maen fb itu gara2 ada c8 ma pet societynya itu lho.. Iya, kalo c8 enak. Bisa kontak ma temen2 without sms.. habisnya, hampir semua temen seangkatan pada fb maniac semua.. Truz pet societynya lucu abiz.. hewannya imut2.. pet q kukasih nama piccupicccu. lucu deh dy.. matanya gede gitu...hehehehe..

Cuma, satu yang kukhawatirin : Hm..jangan2 aku juga nyumbang devisa ke negara amerika ya?

Ah tidaaaakkkkkkkkkk!! tapi masa iya? Wes, moga2 aja enggak yah? Soalnya fb emang asik punya seh... (berdo'a dalam hati beneran, semoga gosip itu salah). Seandainya bener pun, semoga gak jadi duit yang dipake amerika buat nyerang palestina atau negara2 muslim lainnya. Amin..

Oiya, ada artikel juga yang bilang kalo tingkat kenarsisan di fb ekivalen dengan tingkat kenarsisan di dunia nyata. Ckckckc.. fb.. fb.. Kalian narsis gak ney di fb? kalo aku sih gak seberapa.. fotoq di situ menurutq lumayan simple kok... (nb: simpel menurut naniez tidak ekivalen dengan simpel menurut orang kebanyakan *winking* )

ow yeah.. i took some quotes of an article about the man behind the facebook..

“I'm just lucky to be alive." Mark Zuckerberg, the 22-year-old founder and CEO of social-networking site Facebook, is talking about the time he came face-to-face with the barrel of a gun. It was the spring of 2005, and he was driving from Palo Alto to Berkeley.

Just a few hours earlier, he had signed documents that secured a heady $12.7 million in venture capital to finance his fledgling business. It was a coming-of-age moment, and he was on his way to celebrate with friends in the East Bay. But things turned weird when he pulled off the road for gas. As Zuckerberg got out of the car to fill the tank, a man appeared from the shadows, waving a gun and ranting. "He didn't say what he wanted," Zuckerberg says. "I figured he was on drugs." Keeping his eyes down, Zuckerberg said nothing, got back into his car, and drove off, unscathed.

Today, it is an episode that he talks about only reluctantly. (A former employee spilled the beans.) But it fits the road he has taken--an adventure with unexpected, sometimes harrowing, moments that has turned out better than anyone might have predicted.

Zuckerberg's life so far is like a movie script. A supersmart kid invents a tech phenomenon while attending an Ivy League school--let's say, Harvard--and launches it to rave reviews. Big shots circle his dorm to make his acquaintance; he drops out of college to grow his baby and Change The World As We Know It. Just three years in, what started as a networking site for college students has become a go-to tool for 19 million registered users, including employees of government agencies and Fortune 500 companies. More than half of the users visit every day. When a poorly explained new feature brought howls of protests from users--some 700,000--the media old and new jumped to cover the backlash. But Facebook emerged stronger than ever. According to comScore Media Metrix, which tracks Web activity, it is now the sixth most-trafficked site in the United States--1% of all Internet time is spent on Facebook. ComScore also rates it the number-one photo-sharing site on the Web, with 6 million pictures uploaded daily. And it is starting to compete with Google and other tech titans as a destination for top young engineering talent in Silicon Valley. Debra Aho Williamson, a senior analyst at eMarketer, says it is on track to bring in $100 million in revenue this year--serious money indeed.

cieh....secara tidak langsung saya adalah orang yang turut andil dalam 'pengayaan' si Zuckerberg. Iyah, jadi bertanya lagi dalam hati neh... kenapa yah saya jadi addict? padahal lho...waktu temen2 rame2 bikin fb pertama2 dulu.., aku malez ikutan.. eh...jadi addict juga akhirnya...
