There should also be the options for "Like" and "Comment".

Some people don't update their apps every time a new version of the iphone/ipad app is released...

I read an article last week that addressed this issue- not just narcissism, but also they did a study on FB, YouTube and Yahoo to name a few, and found that comments were extremely hostile, vitriolic, and insidious due to the anonymity of the internet, and that thanks to online life people have become more brazen, hostile, and abrasive not just online, but also in real life. The author even made the connection (considering the timing) that this was possibly contributory to Trayvon Martin's demise (meaning that he thought he was a tough guy so he attacked the man following him). I see things getting worse before they get better. What happened to respect?

If it is fake, then I apologize for acting on my first reaction. Some of you guys may not like face space but I use it to stay in contact with friends, old army buddies, and family. Most people would call it a generation gap. Also a lot of you guys post the exact same stuff here in GD that I see on Facebook all the time.

Same- both on the reaction part (if it is indeed fake), and on the reasons why I keep a FB... Here is like a microcosm of Facebook, except without all the bullshit liberal cry baby stuff. [Coffee]

Looked at my phone and there is no way to control updates on the facebook app that I can find.

I have to manually update mine through my app updates
