I didn't know it was going to overtake my interest. I had no idea. I have always been a member f0r 2 yrs, but just last month was my first time ever using it. Why? Because an associate of mines sent me a friend invite. I wasn't going to decline or ignore her. Funny, I never did confirm the friend invite until a month later. Then my sister found me on there and sent me a friend invite. Mind you, I had no profile picture, weak profile and I was still getting a friend invite. Then another friend of mine found me and requested a friend invite. Okay, by now I'm like, "let me play around with this site...umm, let me see who I can dig up." I found a fellow blogger http://www.solomonsydelle.com/ so I added her, and I found another blogger that I read, http://www.rossoscarknightphotography.net/. From there it was like a snowball effect and boy people were finding me as quick as a roaches running away when the lights get turned on. What am I talking about? FACEBOOK! Yes, that has my attention to the point where I have to force myself to get off the pc. Not good! I'm so behind on my reading my fellow bloggers as well as keeping up with mines. Dinner is getting cooked late, my fav t.v. shows are being missed, and phone calls are not being made due to being on FACEBOOK! Check this out, I had found ppl who I went school with in the 5th grade whom I lost contact with. I lie not, it is so refreshing seeing ppl and chatting with them who I haven't seen in YEARSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. I'm happy they are still alive.
The only thing I don't like about Facebook is that it tells your business. I mean dang, do people really have to know that I sent John or Jane Doe a message, hug, kiss, invite, or wrote on his/her wall! I have nothing to hide people, but I do have boundaries and I'm sure you do too. But the good thing is that they do give you an option to delete things on your 'telling on yourself wall'.
If you have love ones, or old friends whom you haven't contacted with, try Facebook. If you don't like it, you can always delete your whole existence on there.
