I rarely use mine. Check it maybe two times a week. But for some reason I cannot bring myself to outright deleting it.
While I consider myself a huge computer geek, I never got into Social Networking/Media.
My life was never interesting enough to put online, and quite frankly, I am not particularly compelled to follow the mundane lives of others.
The people I wan't in my life, I talk to on a regular basis. No need to keep in touch with my locker buddy from Grade 6.
Has anyone ever done this? If you use/used facebook or twitter, have you ever just deleted your account for awhile to regroup?
I was working 60 hrs a week this summer, and thought that when school started, I'd just jump right in. I was so antsy to be back in the class room and get reading done that I figured I'd start devouring books.
Instead, I've found it hard to concentrate and get work done. A few days ago I had my fiance change my password and delete my account so I could avoiding dilly-dallying on facebook. Sherdog and twitter aren't such issues for me, but a vast majority of my friends dont live in the same state/country as me, so I use FB quite often to converse, share articles, papers, or whatever else. It's a helpful tool, I was just having a tough time moderating myself for some reason. It's obnoxiously addictive and mindless, which is what I want when I need to read a dense book.
Getting rid of FB has been helpful thus far. Oddly enough, my apartment is cleaner, I'm on my computer less, and I'm getting reading done far easier than I was.
Anywho, has anyone ever done this? Just get rid of the FB or whatever to give yourself some time to get shit done?
while this is fine and dandy, FB and other social media are the best places to share photos... I'm kinda big on photography, and sharing photos is one aspect of my hobby.
Photos are pretty much the best thing about social media, not how someone feels on a given day.
Yeah, the one thing I miss is all the selfies and other great photography Facebook is synonymous with.
Only friendless folk use facebook, MySpace etc.
Twitter/Instagram is only good for checking out Arianny's latest bikini shoot or what Brittney just had for lunch.
