I used Facebook for a few months and found nothing redeeming about it.

Now Twitter...that's an incredibly useful tool.

Win some, lose some.

Twitter, yeah. It’s great for political activism and info.

I recently found a way to get off Facebook. A few months ago, I went on there to write Sarah Palin a fan letter or support - not knowing what FB was. I got hooked in when relatives started tapping me as a “friend”. Finally, lately I found a function where I could opt out for good. (I’ll bet most of the self-absorbed “friend’s list” won’t even notice either!) -Some people on there put up sort of sexy little photos of their kids and grandkids, photos of their redecorating projects in their homes, status reports of where they’re going and when they’re coming back, and so forth. One friend’s DIL did that and they were burglarized when they left home. - I found it to be just another convenient way for people to enjoy excluding and blocking people and of bragging about this and that. Most who tagged me as “friend” I never heard from again. Some of my relatives would also post naughty stuff on my homepage, another woman propositioned me (and I’m a woman myself!!). I had to check my homepage often lest something bad be left on it. So, I’m relieved to be off FB.
