Thank you, Todd. That frees up a bit more server space now for me to blather on daily about all the meaningless and utterly non-interesting trivia in my life that I feel compelled to share with 600+ total strangers who have now befriended me.

But I'm about to update my status with breaking news about the cute thing my cats are doing!

(Actually, I want everyone on Facebook. I like being able to keep track of people all in one place. It's like a giant, self-updating address book. I've been trying to Collect the Whole Set.

Go ahead an post infrequently, hide almost everyone from your feed, but don't leave!)

Tougher than giving up crack, cigs, and going on a diet.... all on the same day.

I too find the social media such a time drain. I seldom have time to keep up with this place. I haven't turned on my desktop PC in several days. I times I feel like trading in my Blackberry for a conventional cell phone. I feel shackled by technology.

I'm staying with FB, although I must admit I don't frequent the place much anymore. Big time drain. And I refuse to do the fan page thing. It's OK, and sometimes not. Ambivalent mood here.

I like FB for staying in touch with distant family members and reconnecting with old schoolmates and friends. I turn off feeds from the vast majority of other folks, though, and probably only check it once or twice a day for maybe a minute each time, so it's not nearly as big of a time-hog for me as these darned v/o forums are!
