Facebook converstations for everyone

Postby viking60 » 15 May 2010, 01:01

Facebook Flaw

I rest my case - that stuff is dangerous.

Hell, I've known that for a week lol. They're already on the way to a fix. I even posted a story to it on my own Facebook lol.

Edit: I've always kept my chat offline for a reason...

Thou shalst not lie.
If you had known it for a week you of course would have put it in the news here a week ago :!: Now there is an argument you can't beat :A

Nah, I'm trying to phase out on posting here. I'm a moderator, not a geek any more. :)

I don't want you and me to be the only ones posting here. I want to get this place going. For real. It's someone else's turn for a while. I have had such little computing time in general these days, outside of moderating, that it's like,,, I don't know. I just don't know.

Time for bed already. Have been brain-dead at the end of the afternoon lately for some reason... don't know if it's the energy I have had to, and still have to expel at work or what, but you know when I can just lay down and sleep with no med help, and have very little or no energy for anything at all other than staring at the computer screen for three hours doing nothing on it, something's wrong. Way wrong.

Yeah, it's someone else's turn to post 'em up for a while, and let me do what I'm here to do.

I see no point on social networking.

I have an account that my wife made for me to boost her friends numbers for Farmville.

Do not give a rat's ass about it. Seats there collecting dust :lol:

She is shying away from that Facebook junk.

What gets me is...

Why a free site like this exists? Is that for using people as drones to give just info and trends so it can be sold to companies to spam you or find ways to market crap?

Another thing people does not realize is... What will happen if you run for an office. People can use that info for evil or good.

I say more for evil.

Well, I am not a Lab Rat and enjoy my privacy. +1

I've gotten to where I don't care, except for others. Someone wants to get into my computer, see my bills, that's okay so long as they pay 'em too lol. :) But, for others, I know they don't want the privacy invasion, so in a case like say, this forum, I'm going to stick up for them. Depends on what it is for me. However, there are a couple things about Facebook that caught my eye yesterday.

and, in particular, this one:

Have a nice day, Facebook!

Thanks to samwise gamgee though; I can still go social if I want. http://joindiaspora.com/

When I'm online, I'm a social type person. Get me away from the computer though, and I want to be left alone, to do whatever I gotta do. I'm much quieter offline than online.
