I suspect there are a lot of people similar to me - set up a profile and tried it a bit. I didn’t find it compelling and after adding casual friends and acquaintances, didn’t like it at all. Too noisy, too trivial and too much trouble to delete my account.
I thought the same. Probably many dormant accounts. The Facebook people likely don't care as they can still claim those members in their numbers.

I had someone ‘ask’ me to join and like you didn’t like it, (probably don’t really understand it - but IMNSHO it is just a waste of time).
About deleting, I had a ‘solicitation’ today, and clicked on where it says you can opt out, then opened my ‘account’ box and found another block that says you can ‘quit’.. I hit it and received a msg that in 10-14 days it would be gone. Also had another box saying you could leave it dormant but I opted for complete erasure.
Guess my junk mail will quadruple for awhile...I am cynical and (paranoid?) enough to believe when you opt out of these things they really SELL your name....oh well..
