On Facebook...

[arib]

I've had a facebook account since August, and I think I've figured out how I feel about it.

In a word, "meh."

It's nice to be able to reconnect with people that I've lost touch with, but there's very little depth to it unless I really work at it. There are a few people that I'm regularly e-mailing with, but for everyone else that I'm facebook friends with it's a very vague, shallow, sort of "oh, there you are" kind of thing.

I'm not about to cancel my facebook account or anything (and feel free to add me if you'd like), but I really prefer blogging.

All that said and done with, what's the deal with Twittr?

I got a Facebook account while it was still for college students. I tried to delete my account when I began receiving huge volumes of spam. The Facebook staff told me that they won't delete my account, they will simply archive it "in case I want to come back." Since I tried to delete my account the spam in my mail box has doubled. My Facebook account is the only account I've ever had with my real name and the spam I'm getting is address to that name. I will never use my real name on an account again.
