Great. Just great. When I thought I could have my real social life back again, Facebook (for the first time) pushed out a quick update for its Android app.

To refresh your memory, the previous version added a new feature: Constant Force Closing. And it's really constant, I loved it. It made me go out more, check my mobile phone much lesser, and actually build good relationships with my friends.

But before the last point could happen, they updated the app and removed the feature.

Dang.

Facebook For Android Adds Best Feature No Other Developer Dares to Try [Fail]

FaceBook recently updated their Android app, bringing it to a higher level nobody could comprehend. It added a feature that works, and constantly kicks in, giving users surprises - constant Force Close.

Sad to say most users do now understand the intricacy of this feature. Facebook has been under critics (from my neighbour, the b_tchy old woman) that it has been destroying real-life relationships as the bonds created online are virtual, and will remain that way.

FaceBook apparently heard her concerns, and decided to try this improvement on the fastest-growing crowd OS of choice of smartphone users.

Sadly not many people could appreciate how caring FaceBook is for your real-life relationships. I'm sad.
