glitch252 weeks until I'm free!! (of a really crappy social networking site).
Been weaning myself for a while. I think part of the deal is that one some level, if you let it, it consumes a part of you. The desire to know what everybody is doing and thinking, and the desire to TELL everybody what you're doing and thinking. Not that everybody has that much time to devote. By in large, a good majority of people who were on my "friends" list did not post with regularity. They were too busy living lives. That said, the remaining few posted enough to keep my wall bursting with stuff. Lots and lots of stuff. And for all I dislike Facebook, it is fun to read through all that "stuff".
So I will miss it to a degree.
Then again, this gadget-head has contemplated some technology-free weekends in effort to bring a calm and quiet to the spirit periodically. Eighty-sixing part of the deluge already feels better.
Time for some REAL social networking.
