Facebook Maybe isn't Satisfactory?

"The more difficult for me to say there is still valuable, when the user must surrender their privacy to those services and I have got a lot of money on my talk," Zandt said, a social media consultant and the author of the book 'Share This! How You Will Change the World With Social Networking ', published by Berret-Koehler.

The debate over the content in Facebook has spread very rapidly in recent weeks, sparked anger that appears everywhere on the social networking service in the privacy policy issues, accidental exposure of personal information and general discomfort that occurs on the Facebook approach to data personal users.

Zandt says it's not just him who saw the exit door, other people also wrote about plans to leave Facebook and asking people to do the same.

The trend becomes widespread fears of mass, for example in the Google algorithm, if typed 'how do I' into the search engine, then 'how do I delete my facebook account' was in fifth place search results, right between 'how do I love the 'and' how I do look at '.

But friction is not as great as expected. Social networks is about networking and there is no other alternative for Facebook becoming mainstream with the number of members of the 400 million people. Until now there is no threat of a significant number of people leaving Facebook.

Joshua Levy, online campaign manager at the Free Press, a nonprofit organization that focuses on media reform say that the continuous changes in Facebook's privacy settings have been pushed to quit.

Similarly, when he threw the iPhone, a protest against the policy of the closed Apple software. But Facebook is very difficult to be released, according to Levy. Both Levy and Zandt refer to the same reason the family.

"Facebook is very useful, well designed," says Levy, who has a child and a social environment that are interested in photography. "If users want to engage with people through the way in 2010 is feasible to use Facebook. But this coincidence is true. "

Matthew Milan, a partner in the normative design firm in Ontario recently decided to remove the page Facebooknya. He's doing it in a few weeks and told members of his family.

A lot of family members who still use social networking sites instead of email as a media contact. But he also said do not expect people to be very difficult to stop from Facebook because it realized that an online presence could be through various forms of media.

Even before the big wave the flag of resistance against Facebook was raised, several weeks have been busy talking about a similar vision of social networking, where users can control their data rather than submit to a corporation.

Jim Dewyer wrote in his column in The New York Times, a group of students at the University of New York are seeking the best solutions in a project called the Diaspora. They even da has obtained funds amounting to U.S. $ 23 thousand (USD 207 million) since announced on April 24, 2010.

Until now many people are trying to find alternatives other than Facebook has yet to reach the masses in large quantities, so it is still difficult to imagine life without Facebook.

"Of course it was strange, leave and leave the many friends, as well as moving to a remote town alone," says Levy. "But do not be too quiet if there are some friends who can accompany." He has started a campaign to get people to agree to delete your Facebook account with a target of 10 thousand people and dozens of people have joined.
