Indeed - my big problem with FB is that it's almost impossible to find stuff, sometimes only minutes after you last saw it, because of the "we know best" sorting of posts. Sure, you can switch it to show posts in order, but after a day or two it'll start nagging you to switch it back to "random" or whatever they call it, and after a day or two more it'll just do it without asking.

Trouble is, loads of people use it, at least for now until something else new takes over. Some of that is down to the forum software (and I don't mean just this forum here) - look how easy it is to add a picture to FB, and how (relatively) difficult it is to add one here, for example. One thing you can say about FB is that they do make things easy. It was probably great before they had such a desperate need to get ads on there.
