Is Facebook the end of the GD boards here at the org? many GD"s have left for facebook...others are on facebook and don't come here often.
I don't want to facebook. is this the end of the fun on the GD boards? | |

I hope it's not the end--I doubt it will be. Some appear to have left, but others are joining. Seems the way it works on boards like this. I'm with you--I ain't Facebookin' for anyone. | |

I am sure it will not totally replace GD but at least on facebook there is an ignore button.

Being an expatriate, FB should be a much needed feature in my daily basis more than most folks(to keep in touch with my family/friends back home and all) but even still, I refuse to succumb to the peer pressure | |

I don't understand why people feel the need to take a stance on FB. I wasn't on it for ages as I didn't want to be, then I did so I joined.
It's like saying you don't want a phone.
I can understand not wanting internet at all, but if you hang out on the org, why get so high and mighty about FB?
It doesn't mean anything in itself. It is just a question of what you do with it.

is that the same as a bottom? | |

I can't quite get hooked into facebook the same as here. I have tried, but it seems less conducive for open discussion because i only see the discussions my friends start or comment on, not like here where it's totally open My Legacy

I'd say the greater threat to our perceived "fun" is some of the heavy-handed modding that's been goin' on... talk about killjoys...
I'll keep coming back for all that the org continues to offer though... A working class Hero is something to be ~ Lennon |

I don't have a Facebook account, and I don't plan to get one anytime soon. I did sign up with MySpace in 2006, but I hardly put any friends on it, and all I mostly got were porno span friend requests, which turned me off. You could say that I was one of the earliest adopters of Twitter, since I joined in October, 2007. I sent my first tweet then, looked around the site for about 15 minutes, and didn't come back on for nearly a year and a half. I tweeted a little bit up through last summer, but I have hardly been back since.

Facebook is like breakfast table chat with extended family and friends: We check in with one-another, share milestones and updates, reminisce a bit, make sure we're all doing well (or offer support when someone is not) ...and that's about it. Clean and sober. The org, however, is my local pub -- it's where I can escape to for a dash of energizing dysfunction, meet folk from all over the world who can teach me new stuff, pontificate myself about any and everything, get a bit irreverent, brawl a bit, kiss and make up... and do the whole thing again the next night if I choose.
I don't see the overlap, and I don't lke mixing the two worlds. They're a handy balance of one-another. [Edited 6/21/10 17:01pm] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Facebook is more like real life to me. I go there to connect with people I like from here and GD is where I can connect to the people I like who don't Facebook. Everything else I am learning to ignore. | |

the org has stood the test of time with myspace, ICQ, IRC, Bebo etc. I imagine Facebook will eventually lose it's steam. ![]() ![]() | |
