But I also avoided it for as long as I could. <br />The idea that everyone needs to know everything you are doing (and every thought that pops into your head) is kinda ridiculous. Which is why I don't Tweet.<br />A lot of people are not careful with their privacy settings. Which is why they were robbed after posting on FB that they were going on vacation for two weeks and no one would be home!!!!<br />Between FB, Twitter, and "reality" TV, we're all starting to believe that everything we do is fascinating, and that the world revolves around US. It isn't, and it doesn't. A little perspective would be a great thing!!!!!azusmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08833120044345423052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33059794.post-31318216707594416722010-11-29T09:18:05.775-08:002010-11-29T09:18:05.775-08:00I was a long time getting a FB account, and still ...I was a long time getting a FB account, and still have some concerns about privacy. I'm careful what I put up, but it's been really good for staying connected with friends, and getting back in touch with people. I get a kick out of the adventures and triumphs of other people's lives, and the commentary that sometimes happens, but I don't substitute it for real life.<br /><br />How is the purge going? Did you keep a list of what you purged? What are you going to do with all the extra space?Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09364395150014197905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33059794.post-49824680569426507822010-11-29T08:08:51.771-08:002010-11-29T08:08:51.771-08:00I don't get it either.

Why not just lease a billboard in Times Square and announce all the trivial details of your life, if you really think it's that fascinating?<br /><br />I'm probably going to open an FB account for the sole purpose of seeing family photos, but even then I'm limiting the privacy setting strictly to specific family members.McBnoreply@blogger.com
