Really though, even if you don't use it for friends it is a great way to keep up to date about events in your area.
My wall is filled with my favorite artists and local venues, it's how I find most of the shows I go to. It really streamlines the process.
Then there is the added benefit of keeping in touch with my festie friends

Not really. He made a site that was better than myspace and people used it. No one "allowed" him to become a billionaire. That's not the way it works. You are on a site owned by a Jew right now you know.
you are right he did come up with a good idea, and implemented it. facebook does have a lot of positive aspects to it. i am curious as to who owns this sight?

meh. facebook is nothing but a giant exhibitionist circlejerk. i made and closed an account years ago after i graduated, i just didnt get it.
i understand some people 'stay in contact' with 'friends' on it and stuff... but if you need a special website just to manage, organize and deal with your friends, are they really your friends? is someone even capable of having 600 'friends'?
if i need to talk to and stay in contact with someone, i'll get their cell number, email, etc

I like a lot of aspects of Facebook. While I understand what you're saying Gresh, I do think you're missing some points. For example, I use FB to keep distanced contact with friends I don't need to hear from daily (or weekly, or yearly). Like, I'm FB friends with the guy who was my best friend when I was 12. I think he's a wonderful person, etc, but do I want him to text me every time his daughter does something cute at breakfast? Or do I want a phone call from him whenever he finishes a good book? Not really. But I like having FB allow me to find out about those things while letting me not get overly involved in the life of someone I haven't had much to do with in 16 years (but still care about).
Recently my close friend who I do text/call on the phone got his phone shut off. While I do have his mailing address, it is easier for me to msg him on FB to coordinate us hanging out.
And a lot of my friends post interesting stuff that isn't of a personal nature. News stories, events, funny shit, stuff like that. If they were sending it directly to my phone, I might be put off. But if they post it to their walls (or mine), it's easier for everyone.
Etc
There's some bullshit about FB for sure, but I don't mind too much.

I feel like Facebooks nothing more then mcsocialization. A cut down and shallow form of socialization that robs you of truly knowing one another, and the invasion of privacy was getting out of hand. Has been for quite a while. Even with it gone they'll still have a file on me. Tracking me in other people's photos through facial recognition software, which is admittedly super creepy but better then them having everything on me.
Who else has pulled the plug?
Give this man 10 trophies!
Not only did he delete his facebook, he thought it was interesting enough to tell us about it!

I generally use Facebook when I break and lose phones. And I generally like seeing what some of my good friends from high school are doing when they're spread out across the country

Facebook is only as good as the people you keep in your feed.
Of course it's going to be repugnant garbage if all the people you know are repugnant garbage people.

Well I decided against it. The more I thought about it the more I realized it serves a social purpose akin to the telephone. Call me a hypocrite whatever. Suck me.

Lol..
Ah, the shallow socialization had a deeper hold on you than you thought. I guess you're destined to never truly know anyone.
So would you say that deactivating your account wasn't quite as liberating as you thought it would be?
