If The USA Had A Facebook Page During The Civil War

More and more people are conversing through facebook. But if you really think about it, it’s a pretty weird way to communicate. So, our intern Scott decided he’d take it upon himself to depict the entire civil war through the United States’s facebook news feed.

Scott would like to thank Sean and Peter. I don’t know who those people are, but Scott wants me to put that in there. They probably wrote this for Scott.

    Ever used facebook? The updates on the feed are read from the BOTTOM UP. I wouldn’t be so pissed about this if the Facebook thing you guys did earlier didn’t have the same problem.

  4. WTF Says:

    Goddamn your site is laggy. I’ve never seen a website lag as you scroll up and down.

    Too bad somebody already did this. These guys have been doing this since April ‘07.

    Haha great work made me laugh at work, plus screw the idiots that point out the photo shop quality on a piece of writing.

    lame lame lame

  10. Chris Says:

    WTF? Why do so many people hate this; I think it’s pretty funny. Would it really make sense to have this read from the bottom up like a real Facebook bulletin board? Seriously, not everything has to be perfect to be funny.

    I am a regular user of facebook. I think there’s some error in the above displayed page.

    As a non-facebook user, I could care less what it looks like. Intern Scott–super job!! I can definitely see having my h.s. history students use this idea for other historical events. Thanks for the idea!!
