If only facebook could be used to let strangers do stuff in their neighborhood, like organize event, meals, share hobbies, etc, making things more social instead of being exclusive to the friends you have, maybe I would use it more.<p>Of course you want to have your close friends, but meeting new people through other ways could be nice too. Why don't they have more maps or localized data? Why not do what meetup and foursquare did, but better?<p>For now people only use facebook for photo, fun pics, but it's only shared with people you know or added or trust. What is the point? I did not use facebook for 5 years...
What if these new communities Zuckerberg says Facebook is encouraging decide that Facebook needs to make changes, like to its data-collection policies, that would reduce Facebook's profit and power?<p>Would Facebook agree? Or would it adjust its algorithms to stop that sort of talk?<p>Seems to me we need internet re-decentralization, not Facebook doing even more to effect the world.
