Now Hiring: New Facebook Friend
I am happy to announce that I have decided to increase my number of facebook friends. Currently i enjoy four facebook pals, but i have set my sights on increasing that number by one.
Currently, my facebook is just a mirror of my twitter, but I’m left wondering if it could be more. In the past i only friended someone if it would actually improve our friendship. But now, I am looking for someone who can expand the facebook platform for me, however mildly.
Now, I don’t want to do this friend-shopping myself. This decision is not based entirely on laziness. Ya see, normally I would approach this the same way I would when buying technology: months of exhaustive research, data collation and feature comparison. Considering that’s how much work I invest in gadgetry, deciding on a person would probably be impossible
So you need to apply. I’m hiring someone to make the facebook side of my life more interesting.
Be warned; this job may not be for you. I am rarely a ‘liker’. If you’re looking for validation, this is not something I will supply. I’m not looking to extend my circle by being brought into yours. I simply don’t have the time to orient myself with your context so I can enjoy some inside jokes. If you use facebook to relate personal information so insignificant you wouldn’t bring it up in actual conversation (because it’s either insignificant, obvious, or both), that’s not for me. Optimally, I want my new facebook friend to offer the same virtues as the other media I ingest; relevance at-a-glance.
But then there is the off chance you are interesting enough to change my opinion on the above requirements, and on a larger scale, change how I use facebook.
I need the kind of person who thinks before updating a status. Someone who hand picks what ends up in a photo album. Content creators, photographers, filmmakers, designers – you have a leg up on this competition. Because i’m the uppity immature guy.
Do you have what it takes? Do you have the content? The humor? The unabashed puerility it would take to entertain me? Most importantly, do you even care?
It’s time you found out.
Send me what you must to convince me. Anything text-based should be no longer than one page. Links Bit.ly’d. Movies under 3 minutes. Pictures at least PG-13.
Also, your last 10 status updates. (the page listing these updates doesn’t count against your one-page text requirement).
