I'm a freak too-NOT on facebook. I value my privacy. If I want to share pictures with people-I email them. I do not like the whole idea of Facebook at all for many reasons I will not go into. NOT for me!

I don't have a Facebook account either. It certainly makes me feel left out of certain extended family communications, but to be honest most of the entries seem pretty phony (I read over my DH's shoulder sometime). I also resent missing out on deals, contests, etc..

I finally broke down and got a smart phone so I can communicate with closer family members who only respond to texts! (I had a cell phone before, but texting was such a pain I rarely did it). I must admit I love it!

I've thought of doing that, but thought it was illegal to misrepresent oneself on Facebook. Maybe that just pertains to gender/age (which I can see due to the problems of cyber-stalkers (or worse)).

Hmm, I'm going to look into this. I really would like those deals! Thanks!

Joined years ago. I've posted about 10 times in 7 years. I don't read there; I don't go there. If someone private messages me, I look and post back.

Early on, I liked the fact that old friends "found" me and we talked a bit. But then we had nothing to talk about. My few good friends are people I talk to on the phone or real life.

I've never heard of it being illegal! I hope not

That's me. No plans or desire to be a part of either one. People I want to be in touch with know how/were to find me. The rest? There is a reason why I'm not in touch with them. Don't want to or don't care.

Extended family. I have a large, emotionally close, geographically distant family. That is my primary reason for using it.
