I was a late subscriber to Facebook, sadly I was reluctant to leave the comfortable, spam infested, and heavily glitter picture riddled MySpace. When I made the switch I saw why everyone else thought it was so much better than MySpace. No spam, no random people, no 'friend trains.' I added as many people as I could think of and left Tom's spam-zombie wasteland.I didn't post many of my pictures, I didn't write much that was relevant to my life. I used it as a forum to write stupid one liners and gripe about dumb things. Right away I realized many people used Facebook for the most trivial things imaginable. 'I'm sick.' 'My boss is gay.' 'I'm tired.' For whatever reason I checked my iPhone Facebook app over a dozen times a day.
What a huge waste of time. Most of my Facebook friends were people I would never voluntary talk to in a real life situation. Why would I want to see that they always feel 'sick and tired, I wish I didn't have to work.' I rarely read anything meaningful or posted something other than a sarcastic joke. I deleted my personal Facebook just a couple days ago and find myself being much more disciplined. I'm getting more done and not eating up minutes at a time looking at horridly uninteresting status updates. Do yourself a favor and delete your Facebook page. That being said, if you can't come to delete your page, make sure to 'like' the blog.
