The new new new Facebook and sharing photos

I don't totally understand the ins and outs of facebook. I'm a pretty infrequent user. I did notice that in the newest version pictures posted by people are no longer saveable--as in you can't right click them and save them to your computer.

Am I naive in thinking that such a change to users' rights would require more than a click of a button that does not give any explanation of the change?

When you're viewing a photo, you should see something like the following in the lower left-hand corner:

If so, you can download the photo.

Facebook's photo sharing capabilities are now, actually, improved. Before around October, when you uploaded a photo to facebook, only a low resolution version would get saved on Facebook's servers (probably due to server space), and your friends could only download a low res version. But now facebook will keep a high res version, available for download (but only of photos uploaded after the change). For newer photos, you'll see the options as follows:

Yes, Facebook is a social media platform that keep adding new features and improving their functions. Users would enjoy better social networking experience with Facebook.

I've been giving serious consideration to deleting everything from my Facebook account, deactivating it in fact, and going offline entirely except perhaps for some anonymous personal blog where I can rant in private.  But then I thought I could accomplish that just as well by sitting down to stare at a wall every now and then.

Facebook can afford paid ads, can't they, Neo01?

What the hell? Advertising for facebook? I half expect a new poster, say brucef640, to come on here and tell us how, you know what, when it comes down to it, he really prefers the great taste of Coke.

I mean I don't even get it. Like our Canadian Tire fan from last week. No links, no effort at persuasion, just: "Users would enjoy better social networking experience with Facebook." Is this the future of spam? Where even spammers don't care?

It's like those intense movie scenes where they're all sweaty from some exertion or another, and one of them decides to rest up against the coke machine.

I'd like to see the new text for some penis enlargement spam.

Penis too small? We have magic pills to make it bigger. But, you know, whatever.

Maysie, could you PM me the link for those pills?

Or not. If you have a minute. Whatever. Not saying I need them or anything. Ok.

Is Maysie spamming Babble again, Unionist?

It's my new job.

I don't know about that, but frankly I'm getting tired of all these quips against the Viagra industry.

Caissa

I think the quips are against the false pammers who sell placebos at best.

Slumberjack

Oh, ok.  Cause they really do help people you know.  Ask Unionist.

LOL!  Reminds me of some genius marketing I saw once:  "Are you TIRED of those OTHER telephone psychics that just rip you off?..."

Or, as The Onion put it, "I'd LOVE this product even if I WEREN'T a viral marketer!!"

SJ I think you're confusing penis enlargement spam with erectile dysfunction spam. A common error. Clearly the distinct and unique messaging of these two important industries is getting lost in this era of new spam. I'll pass on your feedback to my supervisor.

In the meantime, please PM me with your paypal account numbers, guys, I've got some great products for all and sundry, accent on the sundry.

Maysie, what a great business opportunity! In a great coincidence, I happen to have just inherited 23 trillion dollars USD. Would it be posible for me to invest this money in your stock--see, the problem is, if I put it in my own bank account, it might get expropriated for reasons I'd rather not get into. If you send me your paypal account, I will deposit this money for three months, at which point I will recover the funds, leaving you with 10%, or a cool 230 billion, give or take.

I should add, à propos of nothing, that I will probably be wearing Reebok trainers while I complete the transaction. I find their running shoes of above-average comfort.

There's never any spam for migrane relief.

Migraine pills sell themselves.

And Catchfire, I would prefer to reinvest in Gucci and Rolex knockoffs. I hear there's a lot of money to be made. If you send me YOUR pay pal account we can get started right away.

Caissa

Are you guys going to cu Rebecca in on this goldmine?

I gave some penis enlargement company Tommy Paine's Mastercard number and expiry date, thinking he would appreciate the thought.

But nooooooooo.  Hmph.

Slumberjack

Are you people lurking around all the time, or do you have it set up to be notified by email whenever certain words appear?

Maysie Maysie's picture

Yes. I mean, no. I mean, none of your damn business.

Ditto. It's not as if we have that many growth industries in this country.

Some industries have nowhere to go but up.

I said "sell" not "sell out". Tongue out
