Brandon Martinez — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 04:46:10 +0000

If you haven’t noticed, my Facebook status updates have been a little lacking; I just noticed the other day that my Twitter on Facebook app was broken. After messing around with the Facebook app, I finally got it working again

Why More Facebook Messaging Is a Bad Idea

Brandon Martinez — Tue, 16 Nov 2010 00:58:08 +0000

If you haven’t heard, Facebook announced today that their messaging system was going to get a major overhaul. Users will eventually get an @facebook.com “email” address, based on their username (e.g. brandonmartinez@facebook.com). The platform revamp may sound like a great idea, but I can think of one good reason on why it’s a bad idea

The New (New, New) Facebook: My Favorite Update

Brandon Martinez — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 02:47:16 +0000

Facebook has been through several iterations. Through those, I think they have made a lot of great improvements. They’ve added more features for people to communicate and share with, added the ability for third parties to extend Facebook with custom apps, and allow for other web sites to share information within a user’s feed. However, with one of their updates, giving the ability of custom apps, a new form of spam has come

Facebook Feature Request: Daily Updates

Brandon Martinez — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 14:37:01 +0000

As far as social networking goes, Facebook is one the best out there. It has a huge feature set, can be extended by apps, and almost everyone I know has one. However, that doesn’t mean there aren’t areas for improvement.

I honestly hate getting emails every time something occurs. Someone tagged me in a post or a photo, someone wants me to join Farmville or Mafia Wars, they think I’m a family member, etc, etc, and etc! I have over 5000 Facebook notifications in my Gmail (yeah, I don’t delete anything). It gets a little overwhelming.

Facebook, how about an option to subscribe to daily, weekly, or even monthly updates, instead of alerting me 500 times a day? Please?

Does anyone out there agree?

Facebook Adds Email Support for Comment Threads

Brandon Martinez — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 06:00:27 +0000

One of the features I’ve wanted on Facebook is the ability to reply to a comment thread from my email. For example, there are often times when I receive a Facebook notification email on my iPhone, where I would rather hit reply than to quit the mail app, open the Facebook app, go to my profile (or wherever else the comment thread was occurring), and then comment. Finally, my requests have been answered.
