My new favorite chuckle
Whenever discussing possible Facebook applications or some of the concepts involved in bringing a product into Facebook, I invariably hear a lot of:"we want to do X because we've found college students respond well to Y"
or "college students [on Facebook] will love Z"
Now, I don't mean to be too picky but there's a couple of problems with this:
- Over 50% of Facebook is not in college
- Just how old do I look to you?*
Seriously now.
* I dropped out of college earlier this year, after winter semester
