Just wondering what people thought about the various FB games, and if anyone played them.

I've tried a few, while not epic, some are playable. It helps to have friends. If you do play and need a friend, let me know.

I'm currently going through the "Will not use facebook while it's a large megacorp conglomorate whore" phase where the notion is that Facebook is a Monopoly of sorts, I mean how often do you here of that otherspace.

Don't get me wrong this isn't about hating the popularity, but I do identify that some of it's failures are actually due to it's popularity, as if people are only drawn to that one site they push the servers and scripts beyond the realm of just standard internet usage design (remember that the next time you are on a slowdown or can't login)

As for a "Social Networking" site a lot of it's users aren't as social as you might think, just number all the people you have down as a friend and ask yourself "How many times have they attempted to speak to me in the past 6 months? How many times have I attempted to speak to them?" Then weigh the equation, those that interact and those that just "Exist", who's greater in number?. You'll find the answer is a moot point.
