Here’s an idea for a FaceBook application: something that makes every other application go away.
I use FaceBook for one reason: to stay in contact with my friends. I don’t care about being super poked. I don’t care about sideshows, or fortune cookies. If I want to read RSS feeds I’ll use an RSS reader. If I want to check out del.icio.us, I’ll check out del.icio.us. FaceBook, for me, is a brilliant way to see pictures from parties and rolladex my friends.
Now don’t get me wrong. There are a lot of people out there that love all these new things that are popping up. But I’m not one of them. And I’m not alone.
So here is the first idea care of Jeremy David. Make something to keep FaceBook the way I (and a growing group of other people) like it. We’ll love you (and your brand) forever. Well, until we inevitably get sucked into all the hype and decide that these cool applications really aren’t all that bad.
