Yes, i love it, its a great way to stay connected to friends and family that live in another state.

I never understood it. I don't really care to know that much detail about people I hardly know, why do they care that much about what I do? Also, it is not safe -- you may think your privacy settings will protect you, but check out news reports (cnbc did a great story of FB not long ago) and you will find that nothing is safe or private. If I want to find out how friends and family are doing, I pick up the phone and call. Or email pictures.

Love my facebook! I get to "talk" to friends & family who live far away, daily. Or I can get on chat with them on there & have a full conversation!
|
Let me see .... from 3-8am is get-up, pack lunches &quiet time, put the maid and gardener to work ...
Then from 8-10am it is QB-time ... filling my eyes & mind with other people's beautiful handwork ... After that I can clear my mind and focus on my own meagre needlework ... Afternoon I catch up with QB, then I'm off to start dinner ... and catching up with everyone else's day .... and by 8pm its quiet time and off to bed... Hmmmmm ..... seems I have no time for FB ....:) I'll leave it to those who have more hours in their day .... |
I have to say, after reading all of these posts about Facebook has got me thinking. I joined FB to stay connected with family, I dont have many friends. But family I do. I am the one in the family that use to try and call and visit, but did I ever get that in return....NO...then I found that I was the one posting comments on THEIR pages, but no one ever comments on my page when I posted things....EVER. It really hurts my feelings. So now I just limit my comments and my pictures/videos. I now just post pictures of quilts I have done and not post many pictures of my son anymore. Its wierd, I would get more comments on my quilts then I do on my son. Go figure. PLUS, I have stopped calling and visiting like I use to in the past. I am tired of the one always making the EFFORT to stay in touch. In fact, i told my husband the other night not to tell my TWIN sister or brother, if I was ever in the hospital sick or dieing! They wouldnt care anyway...tell my mom and dad but not my siblings.
Okay, sorry for my rant....sore subject I guess hahahahaha |
Second post re: FB, I intentionaly do not friend my 14 yr old daughter. That way I can monitor that her security settings are blocking all and everything. It displays that she only shares info with friends and she uses a senic picture. I can check her board and photos from my husband's account.

I have a FB account...actually two.. because i play those stupid city and farm games lol. But mostly I have my page to keep in contact with all my family and friends scattered all over the country. I have both set to only friends and stuff..I don't spend no where near as much time there now since i found QB =)
|
I tried face book and didn't like it and not gonna try it again.
|
I have an account,but I must say it bores me. It is the only way I ever see some of my friends and family ,so I check once a week or so,but I seldom post and most generally think its a waste of time,and kind of juvenile.
