Another Feature to show that Facebook is here to stay!

Facebook has recently been updating its format and features to accommodate the billions of trafficking users a day. A new feature has been released that enables users to filter their news feeds more specifically. Its almost like a mini-Google search for statuses. You get all the other junk out of the way like what Sally had for breakfast and search for article links or who has the top score on family feud. Zuckerberg has worked out all the kinks.

The new audience for Facebook users is middle-aged women, around 40 to 50 years. They are sharing pictures of their children and linking up with old high school friends. The new status simplifier allows users to get down to what they really want to do on Facebook. The uses for the monopolistic site are increasing daily, and this added application only makes room for more expansion. It frees up the news feed area and accommodates niche audiences. Gamers, photo-sharers, article-linkers, joke-sters, and relationship-changers all get their own space when it comes to like-minded users.

Facebook isn't going anywhere. I mention this in a lot of my articles. There is a lot of talk that twitter and myspace are old fads, and aren't appealing to the changing times. Facebook is always adapting the site quickly and efficiently, such as this new feature. Zuckerberg deserves Person of Year. He is fine-tuned to his audiences, they are constantly giving him feedback on the site he created. His audience is EVERYONE. Facebook could be called a survey site to his booming business.

Rapunzel, Rapunzel...What a Great Film!

After slowly maneuvering through the snow storm in Northern Kentucky, I arrived home, extremely pleased with the new Disney Movie: Tangled.

It was Disney at it's best. I was hesitant about the animated film, until I saw the introductory Cinderella Castle before the movie started. I didn't realize it was a Disney production.

It was filled with music, well-developed characters, stunning voice over work and good-tasting comedy.

I recommend the film to any family looking for a nice vacation during the holiday season. Honestly, it's great for any age. My mother (50), my younger sister (17) and myself all laughed and cried till our cheeks hurt!

Let me know what you think!

Facebook or Finals

A mini story I did on the College of Charleston students during the Final exam period in Fall 2010. 
FACEBOOK IS TAKING OVER THE WORLD...or at least the College of Charleston, SC.
