I've had a facebook since 2005, when it was only for students at universities. Man, do I miss those days. I do keep my facebook after all of these years to keep in touch with some friends overseas.I do tend to hate read it, just because I enjoy laughing at people and their ridiculousness.
This app is a mess. I hated all of the permissions that it wanted, and the fact it would pull pictures out of your album and offer to post them. I deleted the app from my phone following that Cambridge Analytica mess, and I'm so glad.

Very repetitive
The clips are pretty short but they gather them from all over the place so chances are if you have facebook or reddit you have seen them. They always use very similar "fails" too so it gets boring.

When I was asked if I would review this book, I said yes without even thinking about. This book has been on my to be read shelf for awhile, and while it wasn't laugh out loud funny all the time, it was still laugh worthy.

The cover shows that this is going to be a humorous book with funny illustrations. I, personally, like the cover, and it drew me in.

There is one sign that you're a Facebook addict on each page as well as a full page illustration on the other to go with the sign. Some of these are funny while others are mildly amusing. Some signs used in the book include "you've already created a page for your unborn child," your partner angrily claims they've become a Facebook widow," and "you've had a face-off with Facebook." There's also suggestions to detox from Facebook such as "get sent to jail," "join Google+ instead," and "fall in love."

I enjoyed the illustrations the most if I'm honest. Gemini Adams, not only wrote the book, but also illustrated it. While most of them are cutesy, there area few which are kinda crude. Mostly, they only show women's breasts. There's no illustrations of crotches so worry not.

I believe this book would be a perfect stocking stuffer or gag gift for someone who is on Facebook a lot. I'm thinking of getting this book for my dad who is obsessed with how many friends he has and how many likes he gets.

(I received a free paperback copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for a fair and honest review).

More like WHAT APP?
Most people, especially around my age don't use whatsApp anymore due to other apps like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. There isn't much use for this app anymore, times have changed.

Good overall app for access to social media Facebook. Easy to use and has access to most aspects of the site. Occasionally shows new notifications when there are none to view.

Better than the facebook app in general. Nice way to be able to quickly communicate. I do like the ability to use Chatheads. Now that Google has integrated a version of chatheads into the operating system I could see myself using this app much less. Time will tell

A great app, but...
I like that all my chat logs are in one place but it seems to react to messages and won't let me remove it

Downloaded this app through a earnit app and at first I found it kind of boring but giving it a little time it is actually a lot of fun it's kind of like Monopoly except you can go to other players usually friends from your Facebook if you link your Facebook to the game and you can destroy some of their buildings still their money occupy some of their buildings. It's a real easy game to get into and once you really get the hang of it and start playing with friends it can get really addicting. I'm a huge fan of time-wasting games and this is one of the best I found

A hysterical cautionary tale for people who would like nothing better than to control-alt-delete all social media, The Circle uses finger-wagging scare tactics to admonish app-addicted millennials to momentarily ditch Facebook..

The conception of streaming.
YouTube was and still is revolutionary. The ads however are almost as bad as Facebook ads. If you can afford the subscription, do it.
