Topic: Mtv Alumni

The culture of Facebook is criticized for its focus on birthdays and morbid updates within private groups, such as an MTV alumni group. Strategies for managing social media include using RSS feeds to automate posts from a microblog to Twitter and then to Facebook, often leading to conversations where the original poster is not actually present. Annoyances regarding Foursquare check-ins and the general "clutter" of social media updates are discussed.
