Fark updates

March 27th, 2009

Looks like Fark’s joining the social network bandwagon by adding some new features including friend lists, private messaging and e-mail prompts. 

According to the post, TotalFarkers were up in arms at the news, claiming they didn’t want Fark to become Facebook. However, founder Drew Curtis took it in stride and said if members don’t want to use the new features – they don’t have to – and on top of that, they’d probably never notice them.

Why the change? Curtis makes it sound like Fark’s just getting hip to the times by offering features new members may expect.

I, for one, am excited to see what they come up with.
