Quit Facebook today.

Bede and I tried , mostly due to the fact that family seems to pass along info that way, and pictures. Bede never really was interested and rarely checked it out. I lurked occasionally, but never really participated. We began to realize that there was very little actual family info and just a few pics.

Can't stand all the little games and does anyone really care what food you are or if you were a tree would you be an oak or willow....I think Barbara Walters asked some movie star that many years ago...
John says" I'm making toast"... Susie says " really liked laying in the sun today"

AAAAGGGGHHHHH...Make toast, lay in the sun, do whatever you like, but why do people feel the need to tell the world about every mundane aspect of their lives...

(She says as she blogs about hating facebook) Just a little irony here, I'll admit!

All those applications are really just ploys to get your information and use it for their own profit...SPAM.
We got tired of Facebook "suggesting" we be friends with people just because they knew someone we knew. I don't know these people, I'll make my own friends, thank you very much.
If Facebook was so smart it would know that I don't really want to be friends with very many people. I like my semi isolation, always have. Even if I do really like you, I don't need to know what planet you would be, and I don't want to see your cartoon alter ego.
I know, I'm old and crabby...but it all seems just a little stupid and a too much like High School. So we're out. From what I understand we will never be actually deleted from Facebook, as they keep the info forever...
