Back to Facebook, having never left it.

Okay. I've talked with some people about my leaving on Facebook and I got one thing to think about. I would be right in rejecting using a website which profits from a stolen idea. However, what if I'm also contributing to decrease all the benefits Facebook has brought to so many users around the world? That's the point. What if all the good things Facebook has brought to people overpass the fact it has been an stolen idea? Would the real creators of "HavardConnection" be able to manage the tool to become such a good thing? Surely, we'll never know this.

What we know so far is that considering the deal between the actual Facebook owner and their creators, it has gave many advantages to society. Professionally speaking, the creators of "HavardConnection" would need a really impressive talented guy to work for them anyway to make things happen. Maybe, if Mark had never stolen their ideas, Facebook would have never been created at all.

When getting to knowing an idea was stolen, a careful analysis has to be taken into account. I mean, if an idea comes to someone who is completely incapable of making it real, what difference does it make? That's nothing, actually. Science fiction writers would be billionaires though.

Not giving the credits to the person who has not made it happen would be as fair as not giving a science fiction writer the Nobel prize for everything implemented 50 years later.

The Social Network

I've just watched this film on the cinema and came out with two conclusions (tell me yours):

• The film is awesome!
• Its story is bullshit!

Thus, this entire post is referring to Facebook. Before today, I was just an ordinary user of Facebook and I have to say it is a good website for those who want to use it. The point of sharing personal information to everybody and for free has always been the dream of all publicity companies. It is straight forward to come out with this. Companies are wondering what their consumers want to buy or what are they changing tastes about. And yes, here comes Facebook putting in their hands all what they need. That is one point of view.

Another one, is what Facebook was meant to be, who made it and what are we encouraging by using it. If half the information contained on "the social network" is true (probably much more than that is), I don't feel exciting about encouraging the success of an stolen idea. Besides, the Facebook "implementator" - I will call him like that - has never had the profile of a Facebook user (who normally have friends). So, he would never want to create something he would not be good at using, unless there was an extraordinary reason. This man had an awful college social life and he would made everything to get out of it (is it an extraordinary reason to you?), even steal an idea to become millionaire and betray his only friend. I don't think it's something good to encourage.

After all, how was life before the Facebook and other social networks? Was it better or worse than now? Were we able to live without social networks on the internet? What difference does it make if someone does not have it? That's what I'm about to discover.

Back to blogging

Here I am writing on my blog again, after a couple of years (close to that). I just wanted to point out that I'm about to delete all my social networks accounts and it will be the subject of my next post on this blog. If you want to know why would someone delete a facebook or a facebook-like account, come back soon.
