Don't use facebook. I don't have the time. I found that once you get started on facebook it took a lot of time to keep up with it. So I stopped.

But I could say the same about this place, but I love it here. I don't worry about my information getting hijacked here either.

FB is a pain. I am on it but dislike all of the chickens, ducks, etc sent to me. I don't do virtual farm, nor send candy or volunteer for all of those mysterious charities. I don't have time for it, I'm very busy, on QB.

Same here, although I have members of this board on Facebook. I originally used facebook so I could just get family pictures, and next thing I knew I have way to many people on it. I do check it daily. But am on here 99% of the time. Don't even get my quilting done because of it. Trying to withdrawl a little from here, but just can't do it. I'm addicted!

I agree, I used to be on facebook all the time. This is so much better. The younger people do not know how to keep things to themselves and the language is bad also. I would like to know what happen to manners and respect for others. the QB is the best place to be. No bad language and we all seem to think along the same lines. There is respect here also. Thank you all for making this a great place to come to!!
