Not totally useless, but it's also something that largely duplicates functionality available elsewhere.

That is certainly part of my point, Rorek.

Plus I think the hype vs. real relevance has biased my opinion to a great degree. I simply fail to see what's the big whoop. It's a hell of a clunky way to communicate in a any real way, and there is the constant distraction of all the pointless applications and adverts.

I should add, I have given it a real try as it wasn't nearly as offensive as myspace.

All the kids are using it. It a way for them to... spy on each other, or whatever.

I use it to organize get-togethers of one sort or another. I haven't seen as good a mechanism for that online, though I haven't looked much.

I've also seen it used really well for organizing small to medium sized events (four to 30 people), or for getting the word out to a certain set of people, but I have to admit that the privacy concerns and account deletion hell at Facebook have put me off.
