I've told my actual friends not to post pictures of me on that site. It's flat out weird that we all sit at our computers and literately slave over this personal webspace. Such an enormous waste of time. Use a telephone and go for a walk.
Consider this:
Number of ways the average person can stay in touch:
- Telephone (in some cases 2 or even 3 lines)
- Text messaging on or more devices
- Email, multiple accounts
- Facebook, Twitter, etc.
- MSN, AIM, ICQ, etc.
We're EASILY talking 7-10 ways for someone to get a hold of you, and on the flip side, 7-10 devices/accounts we're supposed to be responsible for checking. It's too damn much and I'm sick of it.
/End rant. Thanks for the thread.

Totally agree 100%..I still use facebook as kind of an email program with some friends who are far away, but for the most part I hate the damn thing. I dont need to know what all of my "friends" are doing every second of each day, nor do I need to see all their drunken photos from every event they've ever been to. I've made a similar request to my friends to keep pics me off their facebook accounts. I'm thnking of actually cancelling my account.
