Replace Facebook!

a better answer to your question is theres tons of stuff fb does that isnt simply email/personal messaging capabilities… as i explained i host my news channel on there… if youre on facebook get on there and friend me… i will over time try and explain to you all that i do on there… i have at least 20 groups… the most active involve the environment… policing… politics of course… my news group… facebook has the notifications… the newsfeed…your timeline of course and personal messaging which can be used like a telephone or you can use it like skype now… that covers most of it but it doesnt really explain the multitude of ways that can be used for ordinary people to create places for people to broadcast… and they can go live… they can go live on youtube too… if your not familiar with the alternate platform youtube has become you should be… and they are very much active in facebook… so you have the young turks… jimmy dore… kyle kalinskys secular report… mike figaredos humanist report etc all bradcasting on youtube… sometimes live and then in facebook you have multiple people hosting user groups… kind of like fan sites… where people discuss this stuff… post stuff… post pictures argue a lot etc…does that answer your question about the kinds of functions facebook is performing besides just a friends list and contacting them??? facebook and plaforms like facebook are WAY too important now to be run by private individuals… they need the us constitution and regulating in a fair way
