    Nothing is fun about it. It serves as a place for me to relay information to my friends that I can't text them about (youtube videos, lolsy pictures, neat links, etc).

    Other than that, I don't really bother with it *shrug*.

    I use it to communicate with a few people I don't bother texting and stuff too...it reminds me of birthdays I would have otherwise forgotten.

    Yeah, and that creator actually became a millionaire through that and have a movie about him being produced.

    I still wonder why people get addicted to facebook as if it's porn.

    Because people are nosy, gossipy and easily amused. Facebook caters to all 3 of those things.

    I find it annoying how people can actually get addicted to facebook ;/
    Then again, people can get addicted to almost anything.
    Even till today, I have not swayed by my firm "belief"(lol) and havn't visted facebook or even any links that linked to facebook. Harhar.

    I guess it's really an age gap thing.

    I've fucking noticed that. You leave no way for anybody to get in touch with you.

    Especially about Blind Guardian concerts you should rightfully be attending.

    Pretty much what others do, keep in touch with family and friends. People even go to facebook more than their emails.

    I made a facebook account once, then I realized that I actually keep regularly in touch with all the people I like, so I don't really need it and thus deleted it. Anyone I don't keep in touch with is a person I don't like, so I certainly don't want some site to show me pictures of their annoying faces, messages about what they waste their lives on, or annoying invites to social gatherings composed of more people I don't like.

    Secondly, I hate gossip, and whenever I hear someone talk about the personal life of a person they are generally not involved with, I get a strong urge to take the nearest blunt object and bludgeon them to death with it, so facebook wasn't really helping with my agression problems.

    Thirdly, I have severe issues with any and all kinds of social drama - It's ******ed, it rarely has any productive value, and it often brings out similar urges to the one mentioned above, so anything that increases the chance of creating social drama in my life(I.E facebook, and any kind of internet networking sites) I cut out like a lump of cancer.

    I am considering investing in a high-spec silenced sniper rifle though, firing tracking devices, so that I can keep track of all my associates via satellite surveillance.
    This seems much more usefull in the long term.
