Most people still Google “Facebook” to login to Facebook.
The general public won’t start using Linux until the computer they buy from their local big box store has it installed by default. Which for a brief moment nearly happened with netbooks.
I know it's mostly because I'm in the middle of nowhere, most people I know don't know what OS they're running
They don't even know what program they browse the internet with, manage documents with, nor view media with. They know what button to press. George Jetson is our reality.
Wait, I'm lost here...what's the problem there? Maybe they wanna use the browser version and not the app (i haven't used facebook in ages, so I've no idea if the site now just funnels you into their desktop/mobile app as much as they can)
I’m just pointing out the general tech ignorance in the world. There are generally people who think they need to go through Google to go to any other web page on the internet.
Ahh, yeah, you're right in that case then
you ain't a joking. i see that all the time. searching for facebook, youtube, amazon, gmail, hotmail..... even 'binging' for google.
