If it's a family member or someone super sensitive, I hide their posts. If they ask, I say I missed it, but no one does. I enjoy chatting about life or whatnot. Not sure I've ever questioned not being on FB.

I use it both personally and for promoting my blog and in each case, I still get sick of it. In the case of promoting your blog, I have become a creative mad scientist trying to figure out how to draw more people to my page. The constant Facebook changes makes it very difficult for your post to appear in feeds and generate exposure for your blog. On the personal end, I use it very rarely, especially now that I have my page for my blog. Initially, it was a way for me to connect with loved ones, but now it is just easier to give them a call, send a text, or see them when I see them. <br /><br />Great post!

I am a Brit living in USA. It is a great way for me to stay connected to friends and family in UK, Australia and Belize. They see how our family is growing and wee see how they are growing. I stopped spying on the teen... Urgh that was way to much sharing.... I also have a page for my Blog.... I do agree you need to take from it what you need and leave the rest behind.Rayhttp://www.britishmumusa.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298420976025938487.post-11500028035944822792014-04-01T12:58:00.280-04:002014-04-01T12:58:00.280-04:00Mari, I think you were fair and gave your options ...Mari, I think you were fair and gave your options without saying another can't feel differently. That's what it's all about! I don't really use my personal Facebook for anything other then selling from my shop in Facebook groups and using my fan page. Although I feel with Facebook's issues that's a little bit of a waste of time too. Hmmmmmm lots to ponder.

I don't typically scroll through feeds reading every post I rapidly scan and just read what I want. If I see someone constantly posting ridiculous stuff I delete them. I also do not just accept someone because we went to school together. I want my real friends and family to be on there. I don't understand the competition to have more friends. Really you talk to 1,000 people and have a strong connection with them that you want to share your life with them?? Not me and I am happy that way. So, I totally understand why you don't have it. It can be ridiculous at times.

Times a gazillion.<br /><br />I cannot accurately assess as to whether your case is truly fair because, frankly, the fact that I agree with you SO MUCH I think makes me inherently biased...<br /><br />I've received the same criticism as you, only worse. I had never had a FB page until January -- and only then did I join to create a fan page for my blog. Even now, The Hubs isn't on it, and I NEVER use my personal page. People think we are freaks.<br /><br />Really?<br /><br />So I am a freak because I do not want to spend my precious time scrolling through feeds that contain pics of people's drunken antics, verbal diaherra, amd other useless information, like how your child snorted a Cheerio through his nose? No, thanks, I'll pass.Courtney Conoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09013736069363113895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298420976025938487.post-8128611055923547752014-03-27T10:25:55.521-04:002014-03-27T10:25:55.521-04:00Hi Patrick, nice to see ya.

I always need to remind myself that on Facebook, it is a public forum and you don't need references to join.<br /><br />I am on Facebook because most of the people I went to school with have moved away (graduated over 25 years ago) and it is nice to re-connect with them. <br /><br />I crave the human connection also but since most of the people I am friends with are out of state then I am left with Facebook.<br /><br />Sometimes I get tired of daily stuff people post but I take the view of "Take what you want and leave the rest" about Facebook. I am not into bashing but sometimes I will vent (it is better than venting out loud) about what is going in my life. Also, I put things I read on there to get some discussion going on. That is how I learn about things. I listen to others views on stuff and I try to do that on Facebook. csuhpat1https://www.blogger.com/profile/12324673812333885120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298420976025938487.post-79184905016200764972014-03-26T22:13:47.755-04:002014-03-26T22:13:47.755-04:00Facebook is my main network for my blog.

I do like it because it's allowed me who moved 18 hours from home ten years ago to stay in touch with friends and reconnect with people from my youth. I enjoy keeping up with friend's daily lives that I think I would have otherwise lost touch with . I'm thankful for it but I can also see where it creates more problems than solves them, depending on the type of people. <br />Angela @ Time with A & NStepping into Motherhoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16278159650113398512noreply@blogger.com
