Hey, you want to listen to your favorite song, and see pictures of you? Or maybe you just want to introduce us to some new music or post a goofy picture of your brother! Now you can, just email me those pictures, mp3s or requests and I'll see what I can do.

Facebook Rant
Over the past couple of years (basically since I graduated from College), Facebook has been becoming ever more-and-more popular. First it was a hit with it's targeted college-crowd, now everyone from my father-in-law to my little sister have their own facebook account.
Even knowing that is was really popular didn't prepare me for the family visiting back in March (for Matt & Emily's wedding). I don't know if David ever logged out of facebook on his iPod touch and I know Thomas spent countless hours "racing" in some Facebook app.
It's cool how much interaction people can have on this site. It's waaaaaayyyyyyy better than the crap you can do on MySpace (all I have ever seen is people posting messages like "Thanks for adding me" or "Thanks for posting my ad, you guys are awesome, keep it up dudes" and stuff like that). Facebook really seems like a community (albeit superficial and ultimately pointless and/or redundant with "the real world").
I really hope Facebook and Google collaborate in the near future. It would be great to see the power of Gmail married to the scope of Facebook. It would be nice to be able to send messages (in a real mail form, not like the current Facebook message client) and have multiple 'pages' so that you don't have a ton of crap on one page like Jill does.
So am I missing something? Is there actually a point to MySpace? How much time do you-all spend on Facebook a day (a week)? What would you like to see change with Facebook?
This is a screen capture of my Facebook. I run a deviantArt skin to make it easier on the eyes. It would be nice to be able to choose from a couple of different templates for your profile (so that others could see your page this way).
