Facebook suicide: the end of your virtual life

According to Facebook, users spend an average of 20 minutes a day on the site, although a survey by uSwitch.com found that others spend more than ten hours a week on virtual networking sites, the equivalent of 24 days a year. (Think how many pub lunches with real friends could be enjoyed in that time).


Increasing numbers of employers are banning staff from using social networking sites. Metropolitan Police officers have been warned that they face being fired, and universities have started using it to catch students behaving badly. So perhaps it’s no surprise that some people would rather commit Facebook suicide than that of the professional sort.

An option for this type of “suicide” is an app called The Web 2.0 Suicide Machine.


What it does is... well... it kills your entire social presence on the Internet. Facebook, Twitter, MySpace , and, like death - is a one way trip!. Your life(stream) literally flashes before your eyes as the Suicide Machine kills your friend connections and deletes your account. If you want to know more see the video below. It seems Facebook Corp already taken action against it.
