Zombies, pokes and super walls have, sadly, become a part of everyday life now.
Barely a day goes by without a Facebook story appearing in the press, which begs the question - when will it all end?
Already there is talk of an increase in the number of people deleting their profiles (an act known, somewhat dramatically, as a facebook suicide). But even though we've all been tempted to kill our profiles, there is an incredible voyeuristic element to the site it's hard to leave behind.
However, help may be at hand from an unlikely source - Microsoft. The news today that the Bill Gates behemoth is considering buying a share in the site could be a blessing in disguise.
One of the problems Facebook has had is that it's actually quite tough to make money from it. Increasing the size and number of adverts simply annoys people, as does the horrific mass of add ons people now seem to be compelled to add to their page. And if there's one thing Microsoft is good at (have you ever used Hotmail?) it is cramming as many adverts on a page as possible. Yesterday it redesigned its flagship portal, MSN, which seems to amount to shoving a massive expanding ad in the centre of the page then putting the odd link and story around it.
Yet I for one welcome their interest in Facebook. For the good of humanity, Gates should be given the keys to their no doubt trendy loft style office immediately. Shove a few dozen more ads in there and maybe, just maybe, the hordes will leave and my inbox won't be bombarded every morning with the thrilling news some PR person I once drunkenly met in a club has been bitten by a zombie.
