I have it on there, and it will notify you when you are invited to a campaign and also post notes when you get approved for reports. It's up to you, but I like it!

I had it for a while, but then deleted it. It's nothing I couldn't get on my bzz homepage anyway.

I think that these campaigns are filling up so fast BECAUSE of the people who are using facebook. I got an invite email today, and within one minute of the email being sent out, the campaign was full.....

invite sent at 5:20...accepted and full by 5:21....

I added it to my page, just to see what it contained. I may delete it.
If y'all that are on facebook will send me info to find you, I'll add you. I had only signed up on facebook to look for people I went to school with, but have added many others that I have met through other means. I have had people (that I had forgotten about) find me through mutual friends. It's really cool.

We are working on doing some cool stuff to expand the app - basically if you are a heavy FB and BzzAgent user, it's cool to see your activity on BzzAgent published on FB.

So here is what the app is designed to do:
• Publishes BzzCampaign invitations to your notifications (notifications are different from the wall),
• Allows you to share the BzzAgent Facebook application with friends,
• Gives you a way to show off your status in the left hand bar on FB,
• Allows you to post websites from the Frogpond to your Facebook wall,
• Allows you to submit BzzReports via Facebook.

Hopefully down the road we can expand the functionality to make it more robust.

Jono just put some videos and a discussion up on the "fan" page too: https://www.facebook.com/topic.php?topic=8498&post=33447&uid=51600822555#/pages/BzzAgent/51600822555

Fan page is totally different from the app, btw.

I put it on Facebook when it was first offered, but I am not on Facebook enough to even have noticed anything. And I just noticed today that on Facebook it says that I am not a part of any campaigns, yet I am in three right now.

To tell you the truth I think Facebook is a little overrated. There are so many social networking sites out there right now, I can't keep up with them all. And every now and then I get an email from a social site that I don't even remember signing up with, telling me that so-and-so is having a birthday. I am like, "Who the heck is THAT?"

It's a little confusing in my opinion. There's a Facebook application, a Facebook fan page, a Facebook group and a Facebook user. (I think). It's confusing because there are similar discussions on the application discussion board or group page and the fan page. I don't know which is which so I signed up for all of them and became a fan blah blah blah but it gives me a headache when I'm trying to find something.

But what about some virus or spam or worm or something that I read about that is being dealt with? The Face Book acounts were maybe hacked and some worm or virus that allows for anyone with an account to suddenly have their account spreading all over (sorry, I don't have an account and dont' totally understand... but it was not sounding good when I read about it this week) Neutral

Check your Bzz profile. There is a spot to link your Bzz account and your facebook account. Perhaps they got linked somehow, and you were unaware of it.

I thought it was THEIR privacy policy that changed, not a worm. Basically anything you put on there becomes theri property and they can use your words and your pictures etc...
I don't have one either. I have a myspace, or at least I did. It was fun for about a week and then I got bored with it. I still talk to everyone I care to, and if I don't already- I probably don't wanna start.

Facebook is changing again, not sure what now. They did reinstate old policies, It was not a virus or worm.

It had something to do with them not being resposible for pictures you put up and people steal.

It all goes back to not putting yourself on the net in an awful position cause it will come back to haunt you.

People need to learn SELF disipline, and quit expecting the rest of the world to keep them safe. Bunch of stupid people in the world nowdays. If you do it, OWN UP to it.

Besides the thing with the rule change, there was also some hacking and then scamming going on. I heard on the news about a guy whose facebook got hacked. His daughter noticed his status changed while she was sitting by him watching tv. He was not online. His account had been hacked and his password changed so he could not get into his own account. Then unknown to him, the hacker started scamming his friends. Messages were sent out asking for urgent help. It was said they were on vacation and everything was stolen from them. The email was asking for money to be sent to help them get home. The man found out when someone emailed saying they had wired money just then. I believe it was the second time the friend had wired money. After the first one, he got an email asking him to send more. I believe Facebook has admitted that this is an issue that is happening more and more.
