I don't "get" facebook. I've got email. I don't care what complete strangers think of me and I have no interest in the lives of total strangers.
I don’t ‘get’ Facebook either. I’m happy not to be on it, no ‘friends’, no ‘likes’, no issues.
If someone really wants to find me, they can find me on LinkedIn.
Facebook is similar to your grandparents bringing out 6 carousels of slides from a vacation three years ago.
Look, it's your great aunt Martha watching someone waterski. Well, she's not actually your aunt because she married your great aunt's widower about 5 years after she died. No wait, it was 6 years. I remember because that was the summer when it rained on the Fourth of July parade, which was held on the fifth of July because they were expecting rain on the fourth. Well, anyway, that was the year when the apples came in early because it had been so hot during the summer. Karl, did you fall asleep again? Zzzzzzzzz!
I have relatives and friends on Facebook. I am careful about what I post just like on other sites. I do not allow just anyone to be friends. If I do not know someone who asks to be friends, I turn them down. I get notices about listing my hometown and where I live now but I ignore them. People who know me know where I grew up and where I live. Others do not need to know. One thing I notice friends doing is listing their whole bd. That is a no-no to me and others.
It’s my understanding that it’s about family and friends communicating with each other, sometimes after years apart.
