23 Comments »This morning one of my readers sent me an email alerting me to a new Facebook video on YouTube. I wasn’t initially going to post anything but this video has attracted over 20,000 views and I have a feeling that it may just go viral. While it’s nowhere near as good as the bubble video, it is definitely interesting. I just wonder if this is an accurate portrayal of the majority or if it’s a select few. Are you tired of Facebook?

Done by a viral marketing company. Kind of ironic.
I am bored of people claiming to be bored of Facebook but logging on in just like the rest of us.

I love viral marketing when it is natural and not contrived by a marketing company. Like anonymous said, how ironic.
Yes, facebook fatigue — thanks to pointless and annoying applications — is definitely here.

Facebook is increasingly dull. It’s starting to remind me of AOL or CompuServe. They should hire an adult CEO like Google did.
Yaaawn…Facebook whatever. Booooooorrrrrrriiiiiiinnnnngggggg.
Where did they video go? It says, no longer available!

Who isn’t. About half of my friends who WERE into Facebook login 50% lesser than previous today. I used to login everyday, but nowadays it’s just once a week to to through all the ‘ADD APP’ & ‘IGNORE’ bullshit.
It’s just hype and offers nothing whatsoever to improve my daily life or anything that would benefit a person besides keeping in touch with friends, which i can name 100 web applications out there today since Web 1.0 that can do the same thing.
The investors better make an exit for themselves now or else their returns will be much lesser than expected.
Perfect reflection.

Maybe it’s become too much like hard work. What started out as timewasting fun has become too demanding & in some ways a little autocratic.

I don’t disagree with the video.
The song highlights some important issues but is a truly awful piece of music.
The original “facebook song” ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMlfJN4wt2Y ) is a better composition (if only for the comedy keychange) and a refreshing throwback to the innocent days before forced application invites ate your inbox, urban legend chain emails polluted superwalls, and the masses joined and created myriad groups with “LOL!!!” or “UR” in the title.
I don’t disagree with the video.
Tastefully done ditty!
Gotta say I agree with their sentiments. However, I think Facebook fatigue sets in when people haven’t trained themselves to ignore 95% of the visual noise. Facebook themselves added in that “ignore all” link not all that long ago. It’s one of my fave features!
Now, what I’d *really* love to see is a mass opt-out for certain apps. Like “don’t ever send me x app invite again.” That would save more time. I know each app can be blocked individually, but I mean when a request comes in.

@Mari there is, it’s a link under the app invite that says Block This Application. I’ve used that button a lot
