Facebook is a popular social network that 99% of people in the Western World utilize. After the World Cup in South Africa, more Africans will probably get on facebook/twitter just to be able to find out what is buzzing outside of their microvillages. The facebook web tool is something that u can use 2 talk with ur friends, tag photos, and even 'sext' if u have mobile settings activated.

N e ways....It seems like 2 lamestreamers / mainstreamers on the facebook have started 2 use the tool to share kewl new buzzbands. In the following screen grab, u can see that one friend 'recommends the kewl new band called Phoenix' to another lamestreamer.

It seems like 1 friend tries to recommend songs, but the titles are 'so far out' that the other mainstreamer gets confused.

Then the mainstreamer realizes 'oh ya, heard all that shit on vh1.'

Then they both say they 'listen to Phoenix when they wake up' to start the day with positive buzzband vibes.

Seems like Phoenix is 'the ultimate pop music', with sounds that every1 can relate to, and a 'French pop brand' that every1 is programmed to think is 'totally buzzworthy.' Really just wish I could be a mainstreamer who was still 'excited to hear new music'--feel like I have already 'mastered' the 'art of the buzzband harvest' and there aren't many genuine thrills abt it any more. Just wish I had friends who were 0% 'self-aware' and would talk about buzzbands with me on social nets.

Have u heard of Phoenix?
On a scale from 0 to 10, how mainstream is phoenix?
Should I started watching VH1 to learn about more kewl buzzbands?
Should I talk about buzzbands on facebook with my bffs?
Do yall find out about sweet recommendations on facebook by people who 'post shit' to their minifeed / wiki wall?
Do yall ever see any lame wall to wall convos on facebook about buzz bands and alt trends?
