Why is there no way to be selective in the email updates received from Facebook? When I’ve commented on someone’s status or photo or whatever, I may want to see others’ comments that follow mine, or I may not. If it’s someone with cool friends who say interesting or funny stuff, then yes, email me. If it’s someone who posts often and has lame friends who trot out stupid platitudes (especially religious platitudes and “prayers”) and obviously fake sympathy to complaints, then just STFU and spare me. I don’t even want to see that shit, let alone get email notifications. Chances are good that I commented only in an attempt to be nice or to cheer that person up a bit, not because I’m particularly interested. In typical “designed by a troop of drunken spider monkeys as a joke” FB fashion, of course my options are “updates on” or “updates off” globally, with no way to set per-user, or even set “updates off” as default and manually override for a select few. Don’t get me started on the official iPhone app, which doesn’t even allow commenting in proper thread style, or *liking* FFS, which I think FB actually invented. Argh.
