the new myspace....?

I’ve received 21 messages on Facebook thus far today. Of these, two were real personal messages. The rest were general invites to go to this or that club or join this or that group. The noise to signal ratio seems to be increasing a lot on FB, at least for me. Hm.

All the spammers seem to like me a lot :/

I have to qualify that: not everybody that asks me to join their group or go to their club are spammers. In many cases I may actually be interested in attending their club night or whatever. But the constant bombardment does put me off. By the time I receive the fourth or fifth exhortation (alongside twenty odd other invites and requests) for something I begin to think, do I really want to go to it, or whatever....
