Declining Interest in Facebook

Businesses trying to reach consumers on the popular social networking site Facebook might come across a few problems. The results from a recent poll posted on Mashable show us that many users are 'fed up' with Facebook. Only an astonishing 13% claimed that they were not 'fed up'. The rest of people polled were either totally fed up, slightly fed up, or never really active. According to Mashable, what's turning people away from the popular social networking site are the infectious applications. Spamming is consistent, and there is too much clutter going on any given page. Most users want to be able to quickly scan updates, check friends, and emails.
If Facebook wants to stop being compared to MySpace and it's annoying features, well then they have some work cut out for them over the next couple months!
