Blairgowrie Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 I hope I am not going to offend anyone but I really do not like facebook and would respectively ask that you don't add me as a "friend". I just had a look at some of my "friends" pictures and I don't know any of them. I think Facebook (and Twitter) are a PITA. Quote

Jediteo Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 I really hate it aswell. It has a lot of wierd passive aggressiveness to it. Also with a lot of self-involved idiots posting the exhilarating minutae of their lives, I have stopped using it. I am not really interested in the thousands (not kidding) of displays of poor photography depicting drunk people. Quote

T_O_A_D Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 I'ts not all that and a bag of chips for sure. But it has allowed me more interaction with my College Student offspring. Its sort of a " Spy on Friends and Family Network" than anything. You can Block people, and set to Private, Friends and Family Only, if you like. Quote

Perfesser Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 I'm with BG on this. Better to have a low profile. Anything you put there stays forever. It won't be used to help you. It may however be used against you later. Even your Google searches are saved somewhere out there. For secure 'anonymous' searching use cuil.com Quote

T_O_A_D Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Ditto, I ignore, and block all applications, unless it peaks my interest. The if it does, who ever made it, must know what there doing to grab me, even for a second to decide to just go ahead and block it. Quote

JensenPark Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 it can be a great tool to share photos (faster than photobucket, flickr) and keep track of people - but good lord is it ever a time vampire for the weak-minded and obsessive compulsive. my wife used to spend 5 hours a day on it...sending 'drinks' to friends...sending 'zombies' to attack others and other shit.
