Facebook networks are great way to connect with people in your city, country, area, or topic of interest, and C|net is reporting that Facebook will be discontinuing network pages soon. I have confirmed that this is indeed true as the following message now appears on my facebook account…

Network Pages will be discontinued soon
Facebook will soon be removing Network Pages from the site. Please keep this in mind when communicating with others on the Wall and on the discussion board. You can use Groups to connect with the people around you.

This announcement by Facebook is hard to understand. There must be a very good reason for it, at least in Facebooks eyes (pun intended:). I’m more than curious to know exactly what the reason is, because it is hard to imagine why they would remove such a useful feature from their popular network.

The reason for the change may simply be to consolidate the now separate networks and groups, making the new groups communication system even larger and more powerful. But the skeptic in my says there is something else behind the move but only time will tell. In the meantime, here’s a Facebook parody from sketch group Idiots Of Ants, definitely worth a look if you need a laugh…

This is one of the funniest Family Guy sequences I think I have ever seen. A must see:
