Facebook is Removing “is” From Status

20 Nov, 2007  |  Written by Fred  |  under social media

Facebook has finally decided to remove the “is” from its status update form.  No longer will people have to use butchered grammar when updating their status.

I am very glad the shackles are being removed.  But, I do find it amusing that the pesty “is” word is causing problems again.  I had flashbacks Clint/Lewinsky when I first read about Facebook’s decision.
