What the hell has happened to Facebook?

That's right. Finally, the app is using the same backend as the mobile site. I've already seen updates to it without downloading a new app update. Ex. The new pop out look of Like and Comment.
They mean CDMA iPhone which Verizon is the only one currently carrying.
My only issues with it are the photo comments not showing unless you go to the authors page and look and you STILL can't copy any text. That's just ridiculous to me. Also, the notes notification link doesn't work.
Also, people who think Facebook is useless generally have friended everyone and there brother. It's only useful if you friend people you actually intend to keep in touch with (my list is probably around 50 at the most).

Facebook is the new AOL. It will collapse upon itself.
People need to understand the internet and why it has become so succesful to understand the idea of facebook is not going to maintain itself for very long.
It runs counter to everything the internet was built on and is a regression directly back to online services like AOL.

I very much agree ... one day people will say ... I can't believe I was on Facebook?
I say the same thing about MySpace.
i agree.. ever since the last update it has been so buggy, crashing, comments not being there, notifications number is always wrong etc. I hope a update is coming soon

...what is wrong with it? Seriously? Do you have any ACTUAL complaint, any sort of viable reason/competitor that might cause the fall of Facebook? If you do, I would sure like to know. Or do you just like to be annoying trolls?
I can't even count the number of times the app has crashed on me since the last update. Wish I would have saved the last version.
lack of a viable business plan for one ... unless you consider being the biggest Spam machine the internet has ever seen good.
number 2 - 1000 ... privacy issues
Facebook crashes virtually every time I use it.
It will appear to be working like normal and suddenly slow down to the point where it's unusable and eventually crash, leaving me on my homescreen.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled, power cycled, etc.
Nothing has fixed the problem.

Where is your multi-biliion dollar company if you know so much about how the internet works ?
People like you like to talk big, but you have no better clue of what the future holds
No one can predict what the next "hit" video will be, no one can predict what the next "facebook" will be
Facebook works because it feeds on people's desire for narcissism, and I don't see things changing for a very long time.
Add to this the strange nature of people who join facebook for various reasons.
There are people who join facebook just to play Farmville
There are people who join facebook just to look at pictures of pretty girls
There are people who join facebook and set every privacy setting to maximum
etc etc and you can see it's impossible to say when Facebook will decline, be replaced, etc

It sometimes screws up on my AiPhone, but others, it works flawlessly. I dunno. It is really annoying with the stupid notifications that appear, and then there is nothing!
I have to do this weekly, for various reasons.
This week's issue is that it always says I have 1 unread notification, like the flag for the last one won't clear. I exit and go back in and it tells me the same one is unread, over and over. Deleting and re-installing actually isn't fixing that.
