the dilemma of joining facebook or continuing to refrain from the social networking vortex has been a barrier that i have continued to follow the opt-out category. largely, the decision to maintain the opt-out status has been congruent with some of my hesitations for not wanting to opt-in--lack of free time.
yes, yes, poor excuse, alas a reality. i continue to be intrigued by the virtual-realm social diorama, however.
drips of google juice on the subject of social psychologists reaction to online social portals tantalized my curiosities with intriguing reports of the cogitative effects of facebook vs. twitter.
the other reasons i echo in my head of why i refrain from diving into the seeming abyss of f.b. disturb me for their neo-luddite lilts. in someway to spite this, i believe it is inevitable that i make the migration in the near future--once i carve out the time.

if you had facebook you could see all the ridiculous youtube links i post.
and pictures, too.
We've had many conversations about this. I've had some ups and downs with it, but I don't think one is fully participating in life in 09 without it. You get to choose how much to use it or not. It doesn't really take time, unless you want to. Ok, that's all from me.

It's a mutha-effing time vampire, and that's the truth. But, it's an interesting, and oft times, enlightening mutha-effing time vampire. Facebook would be all the brighter with you there. :)
john murphy is on facebook if that tells you how far behind things you are and he can't stand people.
it's mostly a worthwhile endeavor. people have other reasons to go there than just me.
well i am glad you joined.... im reading your blog - which is something i have never done before.
