I hardly post on Facebook. Only 2 of, lets say 10 of my friends hate it. They are considering dropping it. Some absolutely love it! The best thing since sliced bread! That I do not understand.
If I miss a day or two, or three or four, on FB, it is almost too late to respond to anything posted. Or I have to scroll forever to catch up. And since FB is more of a real time thing, it's too late to respond......

I am still not sold on FB either... but will stay on

man, facebook is addictive, I can sit for hours and it's almost like having a conversation at times. Plus there are games and such.

I don't bother going back in time, unless someone comments on my things. The only thing I will sit and actively look back on are photos of close friends or new friends.

If i miss a few hours or more it's no big deal, most of us are so caught up in the moment anyway no one cares. and no one cries about it.

Just enjoy it, post when you feel like it, comment if you see something you want to respond to but don't go out of your way to read everything. I don't understand how some people make reading their friends feeds on everything such a chore.

I think once I get the Palm Pre, or iPhone (instant access) it will be more fun, and make more sense. And more addictive :)

I find it annoying at times and useful at times. It is what it is. I agree about the real time thing. No use going back in time. Keep moving forward.

But I've reconnected with a number of old friends through facebook, people I thought were lost to me, so that's good. Also, a friend of mine used it to put together a video response to one of those "Gathering Storm" anti-gay marriage videos. He was able to find a blue-screen in a studio, get all the people, etc., crew, actors, shoot the thing and get it up on the web in a couple of days. It has that enormous potential.

I will agree it is great at social/business networking... but for the day to day stuff. Meh. ( I think your fleas are members of their own FB. They seem to gather at your home au masse at the same moment :)
