I agree that Facebook is a big time-waster and completely unnecessary. I have, however, been able to reconnect with some long, lost friends so I guess it’s not all bad.

Forget Twitter. Have a conversation, not a string of unconscious ideas–go for Plurk!

Facebook is crap… I had it for a while and the only notifications I ever really received were for games or causes. If I wanted to play a game I would, If I wanted to support a cause I believe I would do a hell of a better job ACTUALLY supporting it. Not saying I do on Facebook! There is no reason to use facebook… in my opinion…!!! As for using it to keep in touch with friends… they are all already on myspace… arent they…?!!

I on the other hand in no way am all for distributing data on the internet about myself to be intensly personal others don’t really want to know or need to know however information on or off the internet is a way for anyone to gain data on you no matter what. It’s all about you and how you want to perceive yourself online.

There are tools that are used on the internet more for marketing and if you are an artist/muscian or finding ways to market your products that are handmade then the internet is the key to gain those interested individuals in that aspect to broaden your search.

Facebook, myspace and any other means of being online is how you decide to portray yourself as a individual, you can share as much or as little, you can add who you want or as little you can even hide yourself.

The internet has been around forever and only now there are social tools that can be accessed over the internet as it has evolved. Great way to meet interesting people as the internet seems to be a tool for socializing in this ever so busy crazy world we live in. It’s all on maintaining a time management system and how much you prefer to be on this social networks.

I love hearing everyones views and I find this topic to be very interesting and entertaining. 🙂
