I find Facebook started as a Social Website to find old school buddies and has blossomed into somehting else entirely. I had a Live Journal account but I don’t even remember the password anymore and never used it. MySpace was too “flashy” and too full of teenagers to bother with. I’ve still got an account there but rarely go there. I also have a profile on Tribes.net which is interesting ina whole other dimension and I got there from time to time.
I’m finding that some of my friends on Facebook are prolific posters and I really do not care what their friends of friends say about what they post. To that end I read but am careful (not careful enough somedays) about what I respond to publically. I’ve joined some “groups” there but find they are somewhat dead and many are set up and never used. Or at elast not like I sued to seeing here and at other forums. Even Yahoo groups works better than some of the groups on Facebook. I’ve got some friends I only see once a year (maybe) thru Tribes and Facebook and many old school mates and some relatives that only use Facebook to keep in touch. It’s not bad but serves a different purpose entirely.
