Last week, there was an uprising on Facebook about the added features of news-feed and mini-feed. While there is a slight privacy infringement, your privacy was still in your control and as another blogger said (I apologize for not recalling who), if Facebook had made this standard from the beginning, people would get pissed at its removal.

But now there’s a real reason to let Facebook know you’re pissed: Facebook will basically turn into MySpace. That’s right: now ANYONE can join. Sure, there are fictional characters on Facebook, but the service isn’t over-run with spammers, ads, and sexual-predators. And hey, there are times that I wish I could reach friends who don’t have access to Facebook, but that’s why there’s MySpace.

If anyone can join, then it’s clear that Facebook is definitely trying to compete with MySpace, both in popularity and in revenue. Be on the look out for annoying ads, crappy profile music that plays automatically, atrocious personal pages, and basically the complete breakdown of Facebook’s nice clean layout.

I believe a new fight is coming to Facebook. This one matters so show up (unless you don’t belong to Facebook in which case, I hear some emo kid wants to be in your top 8).
