Seriously tho, I'm beginning to wonder why I'm still even on FB.

It kinda depresses me too. But at the same time I like it sometimes I don't know....it's a love/hate thing right now for me....

My husband has just gone through most of my friends and added them to be his friends



he's so much more lively and "fun" than I am

too many hungry horny mofos on facebook.

What amuses me on facebook is when the obsessed fams post lyrics to Prince song, and usually get the lyrics wrong

Ummm...isn't that what twitter is for?

Ok I no longer feel alone about FB being depressing. But now I feel like cheating on my diet and having a big serving of Butter Pecan ice cream...

I use it every now and then but it isn't something I use daily, just for family to see how I'm doing, that's about it. Other than that, compared to other sites, it's as bad as MySpace though MySpace is far worse.

Why I miss this?

I love it for the purpose of keeping up with my cousins in other states. I would never have enough time in my crazy world to catch up with each and everyone, but it sure is nice to be able to see and hear about what is going on in their world.

I don't have a facebook account...but if I did, this is exactly the path I would like to take; use it for work, career networking, ect. I think it is wonderful as a trade tool. Instant updates on projects out there, who landed what, etc. That makes sense to me. Making posts about what I'm doing every second down to the color of my undies and what cereal I ate this morning does not.

You are far from dull, my dear. Fact of the matter is, alot of us enjoy food, cooking, and I dont see why your facebook page can't be just another forum to well, show us your buns

prb said:

That too

I use my Twitter account to follow trends, announce artistic endeavors I support, and check out all the freelance jobs circulating. I hardly tweet, because if it's not arts information/event driven, I figure what's the point? Iknow no one gives a hoot about what color socks I'm wearing or if I'm on my way to the airport

That is actually a cool thing. I recently found relatives accidentally on Facebook while researching my family tree. Turns out a Facebook page had been devoted specifically to my family geneology and I was able to accomplish the most amazing research (that probably would have taken months or years) in minutes flat. For stuff like this Facebook seems to be an awesome application.

I love facebook. Helps me keep in touch with family and friends across the world, with legitimate news. And cute pictures of the kids.

But if the most exciting thing ya do is party and facebook, well, that makes for pretty dull facebooking, doesn't it? Everybody with their boring lives trying to look glamorous. I've got a few friends like that, and I just laugh at them.

Ottensen said:

Yeah, that's the cool stuff. I've had some nice networking happen on facebook too.

Heiress said:

Like I said before, I don't have a facebook page yet because I never saw the use for it; but for something like this, I am definitely intrigued and seriously thinking of reconsidering

It's a real time-saver for me.

I used to feel much the same and was a great one for burning my bridges. Maybe I'm getting old, but after years of rushing headlong into the future without a backwards glance, I started to realise that I'd let a lot of beautiful people go without a thought.

Over the last year, I've made contact with people from 10 - 20 years ago in my past. And it has been a joy. We shared so many good times and were so close, and more times than not, it felt much the same when we met up.

Of course, we have seperate lives, most of us in different countries from each other, but I've found a great depth of understanding that I never knew existed or that I would find it such a warming experience.

Like I said, I'm getting on a bit.

How does it get me dates when only my friends can see me?
(well, by 'friends' I mean friends and hairy dutch orgers)

Well, you could put up a fight. Prove me wrong.

It's just life in a petri dish, that's all it is. It's depressing because life is exactly like that.

plus, facebook is great for stalking people.
