Hey, Facebook, listen up...

Ok, Facebook listen up, I use you daily and would say am quite in love with you, addicted, or whatever...I am extremely tired of logging in to see the same stuff and then having to scroll up and down to see what stuff friends have posted, what news they have read, or what videos they have seen.  It's a daunting task to do especially on a mobile device.  So I demand a few changes and have taken the liberty of outlining them for you.  Please be kind enough to oblige and maybe finally your stock prices will start increasing:


1) Comment on Comments: Give users the ability to "comment" within "comments."  Another words, if there are 500 responses to a post, I do not want to respond with a @John: thanks, @Boris:@this @ that...I just want to respond to that individual's single comment.


2) Pictures on Comments: Ability to upload pictures in response to other user's comment.  Another words, if Joe posted some comment, I want to be able to upload a picture in response to that comment.


3) Profile Reminders: Ability for a user to set reminders to ping certain profiles.  If I visit Brad's page, I should be able to set a reminder to ping me 2 weeks from now to say hello to Brad again.


4) Other Like Buttons: Give users more options than just "Like" button.  What if there was a dropdown and a user could choose from "Like", "Dislike", "Sad", "Take it easy there", "Wow", "LOL", "LMAO", etc...We are getting sick of the "like" button, time to spark things up baby!


5) Profile Dashboard: This is the most interesting one, how about giving us users a "Dashboard"? This suggestion can apply to Twitter and LinkedIn too.  So listen up developers/execs:

• 5a) Allow users to meta-tag their comments/posts.  Meaning if you share a post or comment or a nice quote, before submission you would quick and easily select a meta-tag category from a drop-down saying that you are posting a "Quote" or "Latest Article" or "Event" "Check-in Somewhere" or "something you just purchased" "video you are posting" or a "funny image you are posting" or you are "sharing a URL", etc. 

          then....

• 5b) Meta-tagging the posts would allow you to provide users with a dashboard with top listed items such as:
• Last 5 Check-Ins
• Last 5 Purchased Items
• Last 5 Likes
• 5 Upcoming Events
• Last 5 Shared Videos
• My top 5 Reminders.
• Last 5 Shared Photos
• Last 5 Birthdays
• Upcoming 5 Birthdays
• Last 5 Shared News Articles
• Last 5 General Comments
• etc
• etc
• Basically this would give users an "at-a-glance" birds-eye view of what is happening with their friends on Facebook instead of us (users) having to go search for these various posts.  Along with the above options to viewing quick feeds, the user would of course be able to drill-down and see more than just "Last 5..." they could see all of them or just read the normal "News Feed" as it is now.

• 5c) Include the pictures of my Top 8 (top 16, 20, 25, etc) friends within this dashboard...just like T-Mobile Top 5 Friends used to do.  This way their beautiful faces can be right there for me to remember to keep in touch with them.

So...

Facebook, for more ideas on how to improve your services, call or email me.  The best time to do so is usually 6am, when I, every morning,  wake up in a shocking cold-sweat thinking about how much better your services and how much better my investment in your stocks could be....

Thank you :-)
