Do you have issues using Facebook? Here are some of mine that make it suck.

Design
There is too much white space and scattered functions.

Policy
You can only be in one regional network at a time. Since I seem to be moving every 6 months this is a problem because I want to be in more than one regional network.

Hairy URLs
This is probably due to the fact that facebook is a username less system. Everyone always gives their full name and you end up with an ID instead much like any economic slave system.

Yes, that string soup is my profile page.

Ads
Non-relevant ads always suck.

Twitter Copy
Copied twitter’s “What are you doing?” status question with “What’s on your mind?”.

Errors

There is a Facebook app called tweeter. My problem with this is it just syncs your Twitter message with your Facebook status or vice versa. What it should do is be an audible twitter as the name implies. So say it don’t type it! This would allow for a more authentic communication. You can always convert speech to text. How easy is it to forge a Twitter message? Almost as easy as an email? Probably. It’s just text and anyone can be forged. But make it audible, now your talking. Pun intended.
