We have already seen reactions of every kind to Facebook’s stance on how the data that they have amassed will be accessible, and by whom. Alternatives to Facebook such as Diaspora and Collegiate Nation have already emerged, and they have gone anything but unnoticed.
Now, there is a new site that takes things one step further. Its name is quite unequivocal: Quit Facebook Day.
That is as crystal clear as it gets, if you ask me. The site will let you add your name to a list of people who are calling it quits on the 31st of May, 2010.
The site is actually well-focused in the sense that it doesn’t encourage people to withdraw from the Social Web altogether. It actually tells them which other alternatives are there to social networking, according to what each person needs out of his social graph on a daily basis. It explains the advantages of joining specialized social sites, as well as how to combine services like Twitter and email in order to cover your social needs. So, it is not merely pointing fingers, it is actually articulating solutions to what many people perceive as a real problem.
