Facebook: Ufology’s Doomsday

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Copyright 2018, InterAmerica, Inc.
I am a Facebook user; that is I use Facebook, it doesn’t use me. (My information there is mostly fictive.)
But I keep seeing, and have written, there and here (and elsewhere), that many UFO writers and buffs have put their ufological eggs in the Facebook basket, which will come to be les conséquences des leurs héritage.
That is, Facebook, which is under severe scrutiny and will, no doubt, pass the way of My Space once day, will take with it all the ruminations about UFOs (and everything else), leaving nothing for upcoming fans of the UFO mystery with nothing to refer to or be edified by.
Unlike UFO UpDates, which is “archived” somewhere online, UFO material on Facebook will not end up residing in an internet nook and cranny. It will totally disappear.
Already, UFO discourse on the social media site has become ephemera; UFO input and commentary is will o’ the wisp.
And while my meager efforts, like this one, are on Blogger, that too will disappear at a future date as Alphabet (Google’s parent company) has already indicated that Blogger will, at some point, not long from now, be extirpated. (It provides, virtually, no ad income for the commercial enterprise.)
Thus, it seems sensible to me for those hoping to leave a mark in the field of “ufology” or establish a UFO legacy – sad as that may be – would be wise to create and write for a personal web-site or use an internet vehicle that may have some immortality: WordPress and WIX, for example.
No serious journalist or writer uses Facebook as a vault for his or her creative meanderings.
Yes, the site contains some nice contributions in art, music, literature (books), et cetera, but, generally, the social oasis, large as it may be, holds nothing in perpetuity and never expected to. It is a way station for inane, transitory social flotsam.
But for long-time UFO rumination, feedback, and debate, along with “reports” that now appear nowhere else, Facebook has the specter of death hovering over it, brought about by government regulation or eventual public ennui.
