Facebook helping the unpopular people out

facebook-logoSo techcrunch wrote a good post about this and surprisingly enough I was just thinking about this today when I was asked to write on a guy from my old schools facebook it said ” make facebook better for this person, write on their wall”.

So what is it? Well basically in the suggestions box on your home page Facebook have began adding suggestion to post on a users wall. Their trying to get old friends to re-connect. This cause outrage earlier on in the week as users were being asked to re-connect with x girlfriends/boyfriends and dead relatives and friends. Now facebook is asking us to connect with the not so “popular people”

We all know that when we were younger we didn’t want to be the kid who got invited places only cause his/her mother rang up the other kids mother and got us invited. It’s not cool and leads to making you more unpopular. Well somone inside Facebook must have been in that situation when they were younger and decided to add this feature.

It’s weird to see Facebook asking users to help these other users out cause they havent many Facebook friends and don’t get many posts it’s just going to lead to more mocking for the kid or person involved.
I mean asking us to “suggest friends” and “post” on a users wall because they are unpopular is a bit much and is a bit harsh on the user involved. Don’t be a Facebook loser and appear on peoples page.

What do you think about this?
