College students love Facebook.

It’s also a great place to share photos and keep in touch with friends.

I’m stating the obvious here, I know.

The problem with Facebook is, it quickly becomes cluttered with people that you barely even know.

The easiest solution is to just unfriend them.

I believe that my core gripe with Facebook boils down to a single design decision.

A design decision that Twitter nailed perfectly: one-sided friendships.

I clicked a link from a friend, logged in, and then had to decline/ignore/hide 10 useless requests.

It’s annoying, and I’m done with it.

Will I quit Facebook forever?

Other friends of mine take the approach of simply ignoring all invites/requests/etc.

and just letting them build up.

I guess that works, but it’s still a broken approach.

For now I plan to continue living in the peaceful stream that is Twitter.
